    Utopia 2102 - 2 Books written at the end of the 19th century
    Sep 17 2025
    Inspired by a homeless man, I am starting this Podcast. I've been reading Utopian Novels for quite sometime now and this talk is about he novels which impressed me the most so far. As I feel we are living in a society which is very unhappy at the moment with its governments, I try to inspire new ways of thinking and to create a better future for ourselves. I am talking about two Utopian Novels both written at the end of the 19th century. News from Nowhere by William Morris and Edward Bellamy Looking Backward 1989-2000.
