The Dystopian Book Series
Dystopian classics that make timely reading!
Dystopian novels are resonating more strongly than ever with readers around the world. From ‘A Clockwork Orange’ to ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’, these novels are chilling visions of where humanity could end up if it all goes wrong.
Slaughterhouse 5 – ‘An extraordinary success. A book to read and reread. He is a true artist’ New York Times Book Review Billy Pilgrim – hapless barber’s assistant, successful optometrist, alien abductee, senile widower and soldier – has become unstuck in time. Hiding in the basement of a slaughterhouse in Dresden, with the city and its inhabitants burning above him, he finds himself a survivor of one of the most deadly and destructive battles of the Second World War.
A Clockwork Orange – Anthony Burgess’s nightmare vision of a society overrun by nihilistic violence and governed by a menacing totalitarian state, A Clockwork Orange includes an introduction by Blake Morrison in Penguin Modern Classics. Fifteen-year-old Alex doesn’t just like ultra-violence – he also enjoys rape, drugs and Beethoven’s ninth. He and his gang of droogs rampage through a dystopian future, hunting for terrible thrills.
Cat’s Cradle – With his trademark dry wit, Kurt Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle is an inventive science fiction satire that preys on our deepest fears of witnessing Armageddon – and, worse still, surviving it. This Penguin Modern Classics edition includes an introduction by Benjamin Kunkel.
The fountainhead – Her first major literary success, Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead is an exalted view of her Objectivist philosophy, portraying a visionary artist struggling against the dull, conformist dogma of his peers; a book of ambition, power, gold and love, published in Penguin Modern Classics.
