Is utopian literature a dream of harmony and justice or a nightmare of a controlled world with no ambivalence or discretion? Engaging with a wide range of texts from different periods and national traditions, leading scholars rethink ‘the good place’ and suggest that utopia, in the realm of fiction, is more than just a philosophical abstraction.
