About this book

Edward Bellamy's novel 'Looking Backward' is a powerful utopian vision of a future society in which all citizens are equal and resources are shared equitably. Published in 1888, the book reflects the social and economic tensions of the Gilded Age in America, and offers a compelling critique of rampant capitalism. Bellamy's writing style is characterized by its imaginative speculation and intricate world-building, creating a vivid and thought-provoking narrative. 'Looking Backward' remains a seminal work in the genre of utopian literature, influencing later authors such as H.G. Wells and George Orwell. In 'Equality & Looking Backward', readers will find a captivating exploration of sociopolitical ideas and a hopeful vision for a more just and equitable society.
