What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Folding Plates, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding, Uncommon

An American utopian novel, in which a Martian lands on Earth, and tries to teach humanity how to create paradise on Earth. The Martian's idea is to build houses that could hold 1,000 people who could farm and work collectively.

'A Cityless and Countryless World' is an exciting work of speculative utopian science fiction, most of the novel set one decade after the Martian's landing, and looking at how the Earth has changed subsequently.
