Rec: The Soul of Man
Thursday, 5 July 2007 03:08 pmI cannot recommend this highly enough. Read, adore, and believe.
Title: The Soul of Man Under Socialism
Author: Oscar Wilde
Genre: Meta, essay
Word count: 14,500
Rating: G, but if you are under 16 you probably won't grasp everything ;-)
Warnings: anti-authoritarianism, self-reliance, civil disobedience
Summary: "A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the one country at which Humanity is always landing."
