The Coast of Utopia is an ambitious trilogy of plays by Tom Stoppard, written between 2002 and 2003, that traces the lives and ideas of 19th-century Russian intellectuals and revolutionaries. Voyage introduces the idealistic Michael Bakunin and his circle in 1830s Russia. Shipwreck follows Alexander Herzen through the upheaval of the 1848 revolutions across Europe, highlighting the clash between ideals and reality. Salvage finds Herzen in exile in London, grappling with personal loss, political disillusionment, and the ongoing struggle for reform. Widely regarded as one of Stoppard’s masterworks, the trilogy blends history, philosophy, and drama with remarkable depth and insight.
