Kallocain: Library of World Fiction
Autor Karin Boye Traducere de Gustaf Lannestock Introducere de Richard B. Vowlesen Limba Engleză Paperback – apr 2002
This classic Swedish novel envisioned a future of drab terror. Seen through the eyes of idealistic scientist Leo Kall, Kallocain’s depiction of a totalitarian world state is a montage of what novelist Karin Boye had seen or sensed in 1930s Russia and Germany. Its central idea grew from the rumors of truth drugs that ensured the subservience of every citizen to the state.

Recenzii
"A fascinating novel of the 1984 and Brave New World genre."—Library Journal
"Despite the robot-like characteristics of the fellow-soldiers in Boye’s nightmare city, she expresses her poetic genius in the use of symbols and imagery."—Signe A. Rooth, Scandinavian Studies
Notă biografică
