About this product

Product Information

This volume illustrates the variety of William Morris's prose, while focusing on one theme: the earthly paradise. The "Nowhere" of News from Nowhere (1890) is England in 2102, an ideal pastoral society born out of revolution. It is as compelling a dream of the future as the nightmares of Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty-Four . Exhilaratingly, it reminds us that nothing is inevitable about the way we live--now or in 1890.

  • Deceptive title, destination, Utopia!

    A Rip Van Winklish, saga. An example of what an artist or author not concerned about profit, but with the overall well-being of society can create. A compelling look into the possibility of the future. Even better when compared to Morris's, "Dream of John Ball," a critique of a time travel journey back in time. Both delightful perspectives.
