The only available complete edition! William Morris' socialist utopia "News from Nowhere" plays with the meaning of the word U-topia as a non-place. However, his novel is very precisely located, namely in the London suburb of Hammersmith. There, towards the end of the 19th century, a middle-aged man goes to bed after a heated discussion at the debating club - only to sleep for over a hundred years. When he wakes up, he finds the metropolis transformed into a rural idyll, environmental destruction has been reversed, and one can even catch salmon in the Thames. He discovers that money and property have been abolished, a barter economy prevails, and professions are changed according to inclination and mood; children do not learn in school, but in life, and never stop learning... William Morris' vision of a utopian London sharply contrasted with the reality of his time.
