Utopia is quite fun and relatable -- the storyteller is introduced among critiques of European civilization before telling the story of the island of Utopia where everyone lives well in harmony.We hear of their population management, governance, love for gardening, religion, defensive warfare, etc. Oh, they also have slaves, which you'll be if you commit adultery. It's quite interesting to see what is imagined as eutopic in the 16th century. It's not that different from what people may imagine nowadays. And it can be hard to imagine a eutopia without elements someone may find dystopic. Moreover, to what extent is a eutopia made by its people?https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5510247653
