Comments and Reviews

17th Sep 2019
 Rated 8/10
a utopian novel written in a variation upon the epistolary novel, "ecotopia" is in the form of investivative articles and lengthy reports upon different aspects of the republic of ecotopia established in the former merkin state of california sent back for publication in the writer's newspaper in the heavily-polluted usa.

how enjoyable the reader may find it doesn't actually depend upon their agreeing with the viewpoint reporter's - nor the republic's inhabitants' - ideals; one fairly extreme, unreconstructed old fogey yr hmbl srppnt. knew really enjoyed expostulating at bits he disagreed with, and tried to convince three of us all this ecological stuff was nonsense...
