1 5 y separately published work icon Neuroomia : A New Continent : A Manuscript Delivered by the Deep George McIver , Melbourne : George Robertson , 1894 Z942426 1894 single work novel adventure science fiction This work is described by Miller as a 'Utopian study of life on an imaginary South Polar continent, unexpectedly found by a whaler who set out from Hobart in 1889'. In Strange Constellations: A History of Australian Science Fiction, editors Blackford, Ikin and McMullen describe the society in this novel as 'a utopia based upon wishful thinking rather than any specific prescription for sociopolitical reform' (20) and conclude that 'Neuroomia pictures the heady joys of utopia without troubling to outline the sweaty toil needed to attain them' (22)
