Utopian Dreams offers one writer's attempt to retreat from the 'real world' - which is making him emptier and angrier by the day - and seek out the alternatives to modern manners and morality. Instead of cynicism, loneliness and depression, is it possible to be idealistic, to find belonging and companionship with others who share your sadness, or even, perhaps, your happiness? With his wife and baby in tow, Jones spends a year with spritualists, time-travellers, reformed drug addicts and Quakers, producing a fascinating exploration of the meaning of community.

Released into our Bookcrossing Geocache called Crantock Library. Enjoy!

I found the book a couple of days ago in a geocaching box near the beach. During a day on the beach, I finished one of the books I was reading and had spotted that there was a book geocache nearby. My some loves hunting for ‘treasure’ and so we went to leave the finished book in the cache. I found this book and will read it next and then send it along it’s way.
