Overview: News from Nowhere(1890) is the best-known prose work of William Morris and the only significant English utopia to be written since Thomas More’s. This novel is a classic work combining utopian socialism and soft science fiction In the book, the narrator, William Guest, falls asleep after returning from a meeting of the Socialist League and awakes to find himself in a future society based on common ownership and democratic control of the means of production. In this society there is no private property, no big cities, no authority, no monetary system, no divorce, no courts, no prisons, and no class systems. This agrarian society functions simply because the people find pleasure in nature, and therefore they find pleasure in their work. In the novel, Morris tackles one of the most common criticisms of socialism; the supposed lack of incentive to work in a communistic society. Morris’ response is that all work should be creative and pleasurable
