A Modern Utopia

di H. G. Wells (Autore)

Chronicle Vault, 2026

What if you could walk out of your world and straight into a better one? Hiking through the Alps, two travelers step across an invisible threshold and find themselves on a parallel Earth — identical in geography, utterly different in society. Here, private property has given way to a rationally planned "World State," law has all but vanished, and a voluntary order of the able and the disciplined, the Samurai, quietly steers civilization toward its best self. H. G. Wells's A Modern Utopia is unlike any utopia written before it — restless, self-questioning, and alive with argument rather than blueprint. Part philosophical dialogue, part adventure, part political thought experiment, it dares to ask not just what a perfect world would look like, but whether perfection is even the right goal. One of the most influential utopian works of the 20th century A bold, self-aware alternative to utopian fantasy — Wells argues with his own ideal even as he builds it Essential reading alongside Plato's Republic and More's Utopia A century on, its questions about freedom, order, and the price of progress remain as sharp as ever.
