Original language: English Triton, the outermost moon of Neptune, was a world of absolute freedom, where every wish could be fulfilled. There, in a world of endless possibilities, Bron began a searing odyssey to find the elusive object of his desires … The door opened; she slipped out, She wore white gloves. She wore white boots. Her long skirt and high-necked bodice were white.

Plot introduction[ edit ] As the subtitle implies, the novel offers several conflicting perspectives on the concept of utopia. Utopia literally means "good place" or "no place". Delany takes the term heterotopia from the writings of philosopher Michel Foucault.
Foucault uses the term to designate spaces outside everyday fixed institutional and social spaces, for example trains, motels and cemeteries. He is self-absorbed, often lacks insight about himself and others, and has great difficulty with personal relationships. Though the civilization of Triton offers everything that he could reasonably want, he is unhappy with his life, out of harmony with those around him, and continually looking for others to blame whenever things go wrong.
As the novel continues, political tensions between Triton and Earth lead to a destructive interplanetary war. Lupoff praised Triton as "a thoroughly absorbing, highly rewarding reading experience. Connections to other works[ edit ] Trouble on Triton is not to be confused with the Henry Kuttner novel or the Alan E. Nourse novel Trouble on Titan.
Fred Pohl , the editor at Bantam, made Delany shorten the title to Triton to avoid confusion. Cover of Wesleyan paperback edition.
