Description
The author, barely twenty-five at a time when no one could know Orwell's vision of the world in 1984 (the book was heavily banned and unavailable), managed to create an 'Orwell in a nutshell,' while still producing prose that is neither epigonic nor timeless. A visit to the City subordinate to the Colossus, whose inhabitants are fed exclusively on steel scales and humbly surrender not only all their strength in grueling labor but also their children to the colossus – this is a reading experience that is gripping, oppressive, thrilling, and thought-provoking... Is it ever within human power to escape manipulation? How well do we understand the characters in this story? Or do we even resemble them?
