A recent read for me was "The Dispossessed: An Ambiguous Utopia" by Ursula K. Le Guin which contrasts earth "Terra" with another world in which there are no possessions and no laws, contrasting the advantages of each. When you seek free literature, you usually (but not always) get what you paid for.
