Title: Utopian Dreams: in Search of a Good Life
Description: Faber and Faber 2008 Paperback, 240pp. Utopian Dreams offers one writer_s attempt to retreat from the _real world_ - which is making him emptier and angrier by the day - and seek out the alternatives to modern manners and morality. Instead of cynicism, loneliness and depression, is it possible to be idealistic, to find belonging and companionship with others who share your sadness, or even, perhaps, your happiness? With his wife and baby in tow, Jones spends a year with spritualists, time-travellers, reformed drug addicts and Quakers, producing a fascinating exploration of the meaning of community. (ISBN: 9780571223817). Good.
