This carefully crafted ebook: "MECCANIA THE SUPER-STATE (Dark Dystopia)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.
"Meccania the Super-State" (1918) - Set in future 1970: a young Chinese traveller named Ming Yuen-hwuy enters Meccania for a five-month stay. Ming's diary and notes describe his dreary and dehumanizing sojourn in a country where the militaristic government dominates social life. "Meccania" is a nation in Central Europe with obvious resemblances to Germany and surrounded by "Franconia" (France), "Luniland" (Britain), and "Lugrabia" (Russia). Here dissenters are sent to mental hospitals and concentration camps. The state maintains a eugenic breeding program, and commands its common citizens when to have children. All letters are censored, and all telephone conversations are monitored. All citizens wear the uniforms of their occupational classes and the works are not allowed to feel fatigued! A chilling reminder of what might have been if Nazis had won the War…
Owen Gregory – Nothing is known about the author of this dystopian classic and most critics believed that it was a ruse to hide the true identity of the original "anonymous" author.
