A dystopian novel following in the footsteps of George Orwell and Aldous Huxley, putting forward a terrifying and all too plausible vision of the future.
"In 2075, the war on inequality reaches its ultimate absurdity: beauty itself is declared a crime. When the 'Justice Party' brands attractive women as 'Privileged Beauties' and forces them into disfiguring 'Optical Optimization Therapy, ' a courageous student and a journalist ignite a fierce resistance against the rising totalitarian regime. Rainer Zitelmann's gripping dystopian novel exposes the terrifying endgame of egalitarian envy - and the courage required to defend human excellence."
Jennifer A. Grossmann,
CEO ATLAS Society and the leading global advocate of Ayn Rand's ideas
