Utopia

[close] Reading all the time!

[close] The land of utopia is the last hope on earth. But to an outsider it is more of a dystopia. Members are forced to oppressed and can not express there true feelings. Kindness is frowned and love is forbidden. When you turn 12 you are tested too recieve your career path. There are rebels who live on the outside. But unlike Utopia they are poisoned by radiation, the leftovers of World War 3.

[close] I'd love to connect with people interested in utopian fiction. Specifically, I am interested in speculative fiction that does NOT rely on scifi and fantasy. I love that stuff, but there are plenty of places to talk about scifi and fantasy utopias. I'm thinking about the classic utopias that used to rely on some cheap premise to justify some really cool world building. We definitely, definitely, definitely don't need to confine ourselves to those classic genres sticking close to the form of an outsider visiting an isolated utopia then returning to tell the story, but this is where it begins: More's Utopia, Perkins-Gilman's Herland, Skinner's Walden Two, Bellamy's Looking Backward, Morris's News from Nowhere, Hilton's Lost Horizon, Huxley's Island, etc... In fact, I am here to find out if there are some fresher takes on utopia. Let's talk about it.
