| Notes | Published in 1937, twelve years before Orwell's 1984, Swastika Night projects a totally male-controlled fascist world, 700 years into the future, that has eliminated women as we know them. Women are breeders, kept as cattle, while men in this post-Hitlerian world are embittered automatons, fearful of all feelings, having abolished all history, education, creativity, books, and art. The plot centers on a “misfit” who asks, “How could this have happened?” [goodreads.com] |
