ACWORTH, Andrew

ACWORTH, Andrew
(?-?)
   UK writer - possibly, according to Darko SUVIN, a barrister named Andrew Oswald Acworth (?1857-?) - whose sf novel, A New Eden (1896), set 100 years in the future, features the escape of two depressed protagonists from the decaying republican UK to an egalitarian island UTOPIA which fails to cheer them up - despite electric factories, birth control and euthanasia.
