Genre: Utopian Fiction / Speculative Fiction
In December 2020, Harold Haggins had three things going for him: a socialist meetup group that no longer met, a wife who still believed in him, and a case of COVID that put him in the hospital.
When he woke up, it was not 2020 anymore.
The Hawaii he found himself in was the same island — same mountains, same ocean, same red dirt — but the world had been rearranged. No money. No bosses. Just people working at what they loved, a hyperloop under the Pali, and a young woman named Klee who looked thirty but was celebrating her seventy-fifth birthday.
Notes from Nowhere is a deliberate echo of William Morris’s 1890 utopian classic News from Nowhere — reimagined for the pandemic generation. It asks the question that 2020 made impossible to ignore: not whether a better world is possible, but what it would actually feel like to live in one.
For readers of Ursula K. Le Guin, Aldous Huxley’s Island, and anyone who spent the pandemic wondering if the whole thing could be rebuilt differently.
