Jack London - The Iron Heel
Jack London - The Iron Heel by Daniel Arrhakis (2024)
The Iron Heel, novel by Jack London, published in 1908, describing the fall of the United States to the cruel fascist dictatorship of the Iron Heel.
Set in the future, “The Iron Heel” describes a world in which the division between the classes has deepened, creating a powerful Oligarchy that retains control through terror. A manuscript by rebel Avis Everhard is recovered in an even more distant future, and analyzed by scholar Anthony Meredith. Published in 1908, Jack London’s multi-layered narrative is an early example of the dystopian novel, and its vision of the future proved to be eerily prescient of the violence and fascism that marked the initial half of the 20th century.
Today, Jack London's book is more current and pertinent than ever, in a world in which Fascism and oligarchic theories once again try to dominate Western democracies.
