A Modern Utopia H. G. Wells — A Modern Utopia is a 1905 novel by H. G. Wells. Because of the complexity and sophistication of its narrative structure, A Modern Utopia has been called ‘not so much a modern as a postmodern utopia.'[1] The novel is best known for its notion that a voluntary order of nobility known as the Samurai could effectively rule a ‘kinetic and not static’ world state[2] so as to solve ‘the problem of combining progress with political stability’
