About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.


Imagine a world where everyone knows everything about everybody. Where 'sharing' is valued above all, and privacy is considered a dangerous perversion.

Trafford wouldn't call himself a rebel, but he's daring to be different, to stand out from the crowd. In his own small ways, he wants to push against the system. But in this world, uniformity is everything. And even tiny defiances won't go unnoticed.

Ben Elton's dark, savagely comic novel imagines a post-apocalyptic society where religious intolerance combines with a sex-obsessed, utterly egocentric culture. In this world, nakedness is modesty, independent thought subversive, and ignorance is wisdom.

A chilling vision of what's to come? Or something rather closer to home?

Another wonderful concept from the mind of Ben Elton. Not exactly original, very Orwellian in the theme of 1984. Enjoyable though.

There are many parallels to be drawn, both from things and deeds in the past and, chillingly, in some parts of the world today.
