” Utopian Dreams” offers one writer`s attempt to retreat from the `real world`
- which is making him emptier & angrier by the day
- & seek out the alternatives to modern manners & morality. Instead of cynicism, loneliness & depression, is it possible to be idealistic, to find belonging & companionship with others who share your sadness, or even, perhaps, your happiness? With his wife & baby in tow, Jones spends a year with spritualists, time-travellers, reformed drug addicts & Quakers, producing a fascinating exploration of the meaning of community.
