Beschreibung

<p><strong>A masterful evocation of the future of nationhood and technology from the master of British science fiction. A stunning new edition of a modern classic.</strong></p><p><strong>'The titan of science fiction.'- <em> Telegraph</em></strong></p><p>Forty years has passed and 'Europe' now refers to vast swathes of the Earth: a unified super-state that has just enacted a successful space mission, landing people on Jupiter's Moon and spurring the people at home to look at their lives and what they've made of the world.</p><p>Global warming ravages the planet, where shrunken coasts endure huge tidal attacks while inland ideological wars continue. Technology has advanced to the point where androids assist with menial work - but are conscious enough to be baffled by humanity's weaknesses. So much is different but very little has changed.</p><p>Told through a network of relatives, lovers, friends, a president (and those sent to assassinate him), <em>Super-State</em> looks to the future while exploring the most timeless human challenges with huge wit and precision. A satire skewering best intentions and cynicism alike, written at the start of the new Millennium by the master of British Science Fiction.</p>
