Erewhon
(eAudiobook)
Description
What if everything we believed about morality, crime, health, and machines was reversed? In Erewhon, Samuel Butler delivers a brilliant satirical utopia where illness is treated as a crime, criminals are pitied like the sick, and machines are feared as dangerous competitors to mankind's future. Originally published in 1872, this classic dystopian novel was far ahead of its time-questioning Victorian values, blind progress, and the foundations of civilization itself. Through the eyes of a lone traveler discovering the bizarre society of Erewhon, Butler critiques the hypocrisies of his own age with sharp wit and philosophical depth. Part science fiction, part social commentary, Erewhon is a mind-bending journey into a world that forces us to reexamine our own. Essential listening for fans of Orwell, Huxley, and those who enjoy their satire with a razor's edge.
