    Abstract:
    This thesis has attempted to determine if there is a list of features that a novel should have in order to be considered utopian. This has been studied utilizing the novel Island, by Aldous Huxley. The book has been analysed and compared with other utopian and dystopian works to see what characteristics they share. It is obvious that they have some features in common, but which of those are vital to construct a utopia? Is it possible to create a list? Does every utopia work differently when compared to others?
