Good stuff.

Personally, I think Anthony Burgess's Clockwork Orange and The Wanting Seed are THE most prophetic of the novels which set out to depict our "future".

I encourage (again) everyone to read Anthony Burgess’ 1985. His novella is closer than any other prediction to what is happening in England now.

Good luck trying to find it too. Almost as if someone was trying to hide it.

I haven't heard of The Wanting Seed. I'll have to check that out.
