Why would you want utopian books? The West is collapsing thanks to the left, there's no utopia coming any time soon. I suggest you read 1984 and rightwing political theory, this is no time for comfy fiction fren.

Lying frog or incredibly stupid frog?
These people you see as right and left are working together. 1984 is a leftists book.

>>17709098

Neuromancer

Ernst Bloch is your man. He has restored honor to the idea of utopia. His concept of utopia is much more complex than the idea of utopia that is usually railed against (rightfully), of a utopia as a means of a vision of static perfection without any sort of tension or difficulty or dissatisfaction. Check out his 3 volume magnum opus The Principle of Hope.

assblasted lefties raging at this sincere truth post

Utopianism is a genre of political philosophy which centres around the description of a perfect society, typically as a form of political criticism but not always. The Republic is part of that genre.

I should add that the chart doesn't include utopian fiction, which is a seperate genre.

>>17709247
Needs Blanqui and Bloch

>>17709157
I haven’t read this one, so I’m not sure how utopian

>>17709029
If only artists drew these pieces of art without the off putting animesque hominids.

>>17709114
lol. 1984 was written by a disillusioned socialist about what leftism actually looks like irl, aka a party with the power to control all means of production just holds on to the power instead of redistributing it

>>17709084
George Orwell is a socialist.

>>17709114
Not him and also agree with you that 1984 is objectively a leftist book, but how can you deny the fact that most leftists nowadays are against free speech with them advocating "hate speech" laws & that Orwell would be turning in his grave with such blatant hypocrisy? One cant really blame a rightist for pointing out such a contradiction.

There were naturalists in Britain in those days, and wrote specifically against them.

You’re unreal lmao

>Everything is great and nothings wrong!

Utopian work sounds like a nice thought experiment but ultimately boring desu

>>17711997
Where’s the lie?

>>17711999
You sound boring.

>>17712209
Yes, but being bored has become a privilege

It's impossible to come back from Dosto to enjoy any sort of utopian vision.
