Twentyfiftysix

By Eleanor Harrington

Book Overview

In the future, in the year 2046, technology has taken an absolute hold on humanity and has become a supreme power, a despot. Technology consigns a great many people to subsistence on welfare and by 2046 the population has reached 14 billion engendering for those in power, thoughts of a 'final solution' facilitated by microchipping from birth. Society has split into four groups, the Powerful, the Contented, the Nonpowerful and the Rebels and an estimated 8 billion people are deemed superfluous. In a world where nothing appears real, the Rebels begin to fight, until they learn that positive change can't be achieved through violence and destruction and so adapt their actions according to the creative powers of the world. But will their struggle win out in time to prevent the ultimate destruction of mankind?
