About the book

In the summer of 1921 Mr. Barnstaple grows dispirited at the newspaper were he works and resolves to take a holiday. Quitting wife and family, he finds his plans disrupted when his and two other automobiles are accidentally transported with their passengers into "another world," a sort of advanced Earth which the "Earthlings" call Utopia.

    Dystopian communism in the Garden of Eden. This story could also have been an essay, and perhaps that would have been better. In any case, H.G. Wells plays with the idea of functioning socialism, man's baser tendencies and the vicious circle of human perfidy. The whole thing is really very interesting, especially with regard to the necessary conditions and the fragility of such a utopia. For me personally, the form of an essay would have been more pleasant, but it was still good.
