American Utopia maps the pitfalls prosocial reform in the name of the human use of human beings. Interrogating the assumptions behind four modern utopias by Thomas M. Disch, Bernard Malamud, Kurt Vonnegut, and Margaret Atwood, it interrogates the assumptions that have historically been central to the utopian project.
