Critical theory and dystopia delve into the captivating realm of dystopian fiction, harnessing the profound insights of critical theory to explore its ideological implications. This comprehensive book reconstructs the historical trajectory of the genre, spanning from Yevgeny Zamayatins We (1924) and Aldous Huxleys Brave New World (1932) to Anthony Burgesss A Clockwork Orange (1963) and Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games series (2000s and 2010s).
