More about the book

Set in a future where capitalism reaches its peak, the narrative follows eleven survivors of a global disaster caused by a radiumite explosion during the opening of The Pleasure Palace in 2000. Escaping in a groundbreaking airplane, they initially attempt to recreate a capitalistic society but face failure. Ultimately, they establish a successful utopian community on a picturesque estate in Pocantico Hills, embodying Upton Sinclair's vision of "The Cooperative Commonwealth." This work explores themes of societal structure and political imagination.
