Samenvatting
Fruitopia is set in a parallel reality where the world has been affected by super-storms caused by global climate change. In response people have chosen to change society, ceasing the use of combustion engines and living off grid in local communities. Technology has been harnessed for the good of all to enable the production of necessities in fully automated factories. People are now guardians of land, each allocated a plot on which to grow food.
The story begins with Oscar, a young boy who lives in a future world where no action has been taken to resolve the climate issues. The air is polluted and he cannot go outside and play. Oscar finds a door in the back of his mind; a metaphor to suggest that it is merely a case of re-dreaming our world by making different choices in order to create an alternative and better future.
Through the door Oscar enters a parallel reality where there are no cars, the roads have been turned into cycle paths, the centre of which have been planted with fruit trees and herbs. Food plants are growing everywhere, so there is no need to earn money to buy food. Oscar experiences life in a world where there is no school, no work and where people re-use all the products which have already been created rather than making more.
Time is no longer money; it is Art and people have plenty of time to pursue their personal aims. Oscar surfs everyday, forages for food and picks fruit in the bio-domes which have been built to ensure a supply of fruit for everyone.
He worries that he has left his friends and his dad in the other world but discovers that this dystopian reality was in fact the dream and Fruitopia is real!
This is a story for older children and adults to enjoy, challenging normal concepts about how our world is designed.
