Wieści znikąd. News from Nowhere

William Morris

Książka w dwóch wersjach językowych: polskiej i angielskiej. A dual Polish-English language edition. Jest to klasyczna praca łącząca utopijny socjalizm i miękkie science fiction, napisana przez artystę, projektanta i pioniera socjalistycznego Williama Morrisa. W powieści narrator, William zasypia po powrocie ze spotkania w Lidze Socjalistycznej i budzi się, aby znaleźć się w społeczeństwie przyszłości funkcjonującym w oparciu o wspólną własność i demokratyczna kontrolę środków produkcji. W tym społeczeństwie nie ma własności prywatnej, dużych miast, władzy, systemu monetarnego, rozwodów, sądów, więzień ani systemów klasowych. To agrarne społeczeństwo funkcjonuje po prostu dlatego, że ludzie czerpią przyjemność z przyrody i dlatego czerpią przyjemność ze swojej pracy.

Władca Czarnego Zamku. The Lord of Château Noir

Arthur Conan Doyle

Było to w tym czasie, kiedy niemieckie hordy zalewały Francję. Zdziesiątkowana armia młodej republiki odeszła za Ren na północ i za Loarę na południe. Od strony Renu w głąb kraju wdzierały się niepowstrzymane trzy fale uzbrojonych ludzi. Fale te oddalały się od siebie, to znowu zbliżały, mając na celu wspólne opanowanie Paryża, który należało okrążyć jakby pierścieniem ogromnego jeziora. Następnie jezioro to dało początek oddzielnym potokom. Jeden z nich popłynął ku północy, drugi na południe, aż do Orleanu, trzeci na zachód, do Normandii. Serca Francuzów targała rozpacz i oburzenie.

Bili się do ostatniej kropli krwi i nie mogli dać rady niezliczonym pułkom piechoty, tej kawalerii, tym śmiercionośnym armatom. Obcoplemieńcy zawładnęli ich krajem i byli nieugięci w swym ogromie.
