Read LeGuin's The Dispossessed for a communist society that thought it was perfect. Only by the most intense autohypnosis and conditioning could its members function according to their "ideals."

In other words, their whole society was entirely wrong.

I didn't finish the book, either -- but then, LeGuin isn't often my cup of tea.
