Join a book club led by Chief Librarian Christine Catallo and inspired by our Special Collections exhibition The Book Beautiful: Selections from the Private Press Movement, which is on view through September 23.
Written by William Morris, artist, textile designer, poet, and social activist, in 1890, News from Nowhere (or an Epoch of Rest Being Some Chapters from a Utopian Romance), is the story of William Guest, a 19th-century man who awakens one morning to find himself in the year 2102, and the future proves to be a pastoral paradise, free from the capitalism and industrialization that Morris and his cohorts eschewed.
