About this book

Inspired by Étienne Cabet’s utopian Voyage to Icaria, friends Ploetz and Wagner travel to the New World to help build an ideal society. Their paths divide as Europe enters the twentieth century: one becomes absorbed by Nazi dreams of racial improvement, while the other turns away. Framed by an American officer’s investigation after 1945, Uwe Timm’s novel examines utopian thought, eugenics and the fatal conversion of social ideals into programmes of biological power. Originally written in German as “Ikarien”, this is the Arabic edition published by Mamdouh Adwan Publishing House.
