Note: Originally published in 1887 anonymously, first under Hudson's name in 1906
--John Clute, below
Synopsis: "Throughout both his fiction and his nonfiction there can be detected hints of some lost (or never possible) Arcadia. A Crystal Age (1887 anon; 1906 as WHH) a quasi-Utopia set in the Far Future, is of fantasy interest for its portrait of a society of harmonious communities divided into Houses, each governed by a Mother, and of a visitor from 19th-century England who fails fatally to comprehend the pattern and Balance of this life."
