This dark vision of America's future which "may be her finest individual work . is set in a distant near future America a devastated environmentally degraded authoritarian dystopia organized so as to oppress and humiliate the unprivileged who comprise the vast majority of a world where technology has begun to fail and scarcity once again to reign.
