A partir de una visión negativa de la teoría de la evolución de Darwin, Butler crea en "Erewhon" una fantasía filosófica sobre un país situado en un lugar remoto del mundo que representa una antítesis de la Inglaterra de su época. Prácticamente todos los usos y costumbres sociales de los erewhonianos son los opuestos, los contrarios exactos de la sociedad victoriana: la enfermedad, la salud, el delito�, todo se concibe y trata de forma antagónica a ella, dejando al descubierto la hipocresía que la caracterizaba y su inconsistencia social. Al tiempo que una muestra de literatura de viajes y una novela de aventuras, "Erewhon" es una utopía muy especial que, situada en la frontera del género utópico clásico y el que arranca en el siglo XX, ha sido considerada como un antecedente del surrealismo y el subgénero distópico.
