City of Endless Night

 

A pioneering anti-Utopian novel, City of Endless Night was written in the wake of the First World War, and reflected a view of German culture driven by wartime propaganda. Despite this, it managed in 1920 to predict many facets of the Nazi regime and similar authoritarian systems that developed throughout the twentieth century. Like George Orwell’s 1984, it reminds us of the perils of favoring security and perfection over freedom and human rights.
