En savoir plus sur le livre

Set in the enigmatic nation of Erewhon, this novel offers a complex portrayal that blurs the lines between utopia and dystopia. While it initially presents as an ideal society, deeper exploration reveals significant flaws, distinguishing it from Orwell's bleak vision. The narrative serves as a satirical commentary, drawing comparisons to Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels" and William Morris's "News from Nowhere," both of which critique contemporary societal norms and the British Empire's self-image.
