Review: "News From Nowhere" revisited - I read it first as a lonely 14 year old. For some reason I totally forgot its content, unlike the H.G. Wells "scientific romances" (his term) novels that I also read at that time. Revisiting it now as an 80 year old I see what fascinated me about "News From Nowhere" and still sense its magic. However I can now understand why Morris's idealised communism can never work; the world really is so much more complex than he appreciated, human nature so much more complex also, and medicine (for example) demands a structured training that he found abhorrent, understandably so when we consider what most schooling (especially for those denied his privileged upbringing) was like in his time. Given his idealism I can only be thankful that he was not to know what Stalin, Mao, Ho Chi Min and others made of the system that he thought would set people free. The other material was new to me, enjoyable, but leaving me wondering if he really knew as much about medaeval life as he thought that he did.
Review: Brilliant and engaging - Great read, William Morris was definitely onto something. Get the book & read it. Wether you agree or disagree. You will be more the richer for doing so.

This was 100 years ahead of it's time. Extraordinary.
