News from Nowhere (1890) is the most famous work of one of the
greatest British writers and thinkers, William Morris. It is a
utopian picture of a future communist society, drawing on the work
of Ruskin and Marx and written in response to what Morris saw as
soulless and mechanical visions of socialism. In this work of his
last years, Morris distilled many of his leading ideas on politics,
art and society, imagining a world in which capitalism has been
abolished by a workers' revolution and nature and society have
become beautiful habitations for humanity. In an era that has seen
the collapse of state socialism, Morris's damning critique of this
conception, and his positing of a powerful alternative, have
important contemporary resonances.
