It is the very near future. Paul Ali, a young science fiction writer, who has the perceived misfortune of a Muslim heritage, has been arrested for no compelling reason. He is held as prisoner B, without a lawyer and isolated. Whenever the powers-that-be fancy a diversion, they beat him up. A foul-mouthed jobsworth subjects him to coarse and unremitting questioning. To escape from this humiliation, prisoner B writes - in the privacy of his mind - a science fiction novel set on a planet in every sense a thousand light years away. But gradually, the two worlds start to converge...In the tradition of dystopias like 1984, this novel shocks and entertains.

Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Aldiss, Brian W. Harm. First UK edition. London: Duckworth Overlook, 2007. Hardback, VG, in unclipped dustjacket, slightly curled at top and base, with a couple of small tears repaired with tape and a crease to inside front flap. Black cloth with gilt lettering to spine. Binding strong. 228pp. Light foxing to edges of page block. Contents clean and bright. It is the very near future. Paul Ali, a young writer of light fiction with a Muslim heritage, has been arrested for no compelling reason. He is held as Prisoner B, in HARM - the Hostile Activities Research Ministry - and isolated. Foul-mouthed interrogators subject him to torture and unremitting questioning. To evade this misery, Prisoner B escapes - through his split personality - to a science fiction-like planet ruled by insects, in every sense a thousand light years away. But gradually the two worlds start to converge. In the tradition of dystopias like '1984', this novel shocks, provokes and entertains.
