In Nowtopia, Carlsson, a San Francisco cultural innovator and creative force behind the Critical Mass bike-ins that are now fixtures in over 300 cities worldwide, takes us on a tour of happenings at the edges of society that are redefining ways of thinking, working, and living. Along the way, Carlsson deftly dissects and critiques what I would call our "Youtopian" society, in which individuals, largely isolated from one another, work for the privilege to consume. Though Carlsson's multifaceted cultural analysis is often riveting, the true power of Nowtopia is its practicality. the ideas in this book are actionable. Given that we're undoubtedly at a turning point in history, Nowtopia just might serve as an essential guide book for how to move forward. --Sam Edmondson,

Amidst destruction and war, it is important to see our own strength and creativity. This is an exciting and lovely book.”
