News From Nowhere

News From Nowhere

by William Morris

News from Nowhere is a utopian novel that imagines a future society based on socialism and common ownership. Set in a world without private property, money, or oppressive systems, the story follows William Guest, a man from the late 19th century who wakes up in this idyllic future. He encounters a society where work is fulfilling and enjoyable, and where people live in harmony with nature. Through Guest's journey, the novel explores the potential for a just and equitable society, and questions the nature of work, happiness, and human fulfillment.
