To Whom This May Come (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

In this imaginative short story, author Edward Bellamy brings together two themes that run through many of his works -- telepathy and utopian society. After a shipwreck, the narrator finds himself stranded on a remote island populated by a tribe blessed with the ability to read minds. This unique skill has alleviated many of the problems and anxieties that plague modern life in the rest of the world, such as dishonesty, crime and even misread romantic signals.
