Can literature change our real world society? At its foundation, utopian and dystopian fiction asks a few seemingly simple questions aimed at doing just that. Who are we as a society? Who do we want to be? Who are we afraid we might become? When these questions are framed in the speculative versions of Heaven and Hell on earth, you won’t find easy answers, but you will find tremendously insightful and often entertaining perspectives.

Uncover the darkness behind seeming utopias and discover the hope that lives beneath the terror of dystopias as you deep dive into classics, blockbusters, and little known gems by:

Jonathan Swift
Louisa May Alcott
Samuel Butler
Ursula K. Le Guin
Edward Bellamy
H.G. Wells
Samuel Delany
George Orwell
Octavia Butler
Anthony Burgess
Margaret Atwood
And many more
