Utopia

Utopia by Thomas More

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


*** Possible Spoilers ***

Although this is a work of fiction, I think it would be better classified as philosophy. True, both characters and setting are fictional but the book consists mostly of an exposition of what the author believes would be an ideal society. Modern readers will have encountered most of this before as it reads like a 16th century Marx. There is a bit of satire but one would need to be a historian to fully understand it. For the modern reader there's not much here.
