174 pp, mass market paperback. "Art Henry was quite inconsiderate: he should never have survived his heart attack according to the tidy computations of his Orwellian society. And to walk the streets playing his trombone as he searched for his lost poodle simply didn't fit the orthodoxy of an England dosed, dazed and dumb-founded by a welfare state that sprayed its proles like crops and bred its executives in test-tubes." Interior - pages starting to brown, top corner of textblock very slightly bumped, tiny nick at bottom of last few pages. Exterior - light edge wear, very light rubbing, crease down front hinge, small crease at top corners, very small crease and tiny tear at top of rear cover, a few tiny scuffs, edges of textblock browned.

Orwellian,  Humour,  Welfare  State,  Planned  Societies,  Future,  Dystopian.
