Momaya Short Story Review 2017 - Utopia Dystopia

Utopia or Dystopia? 2017 was a year of contradictions. Some of the world's greatest literature have dealt with the theme of dystopia - Atwood's The Handmaiden's Tale, Burgess' The Clockwork Orange, Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, Huxley's A Brave New World, Orwell's 1984, to name just a handful. While utopias seem a bit more thin on the ground, the better known include Morris's News from Nowhere, More's Utopia, Campanella's The City of the Sun and Disney's Tomorrowland. Utopias seem to have ruled the eighteen and nineteenth centuries, while dystopias came into their own after World War One. "Almost without exception, everything society has considered a social advance has been prefigured first in some utopian writing." - David L. Cooperrider, PhD Momaya Press has been giving writers a worldwide forum for fourteen years.
