If you were com­plete­ly hooked by Jen­nifer Lynn Barnes’ The Inher­i­tance Games — with its mind-bend­ing rid­dles, elab­o­rate puz­zles, unex­pect­ed twists, and a hint of romance — you’re not alone.

In the world of dystopi­an fic­tion, two books have become the stan­­dard-bear­ers for rad­i­cal­ly dif­fer­ent visions of soci­ety: 1984 by George Orwell and Brave New World by Aldous Hux­ley. One is hailed as a chill­ing warn­ing of sur­veil­lance and total­i­tar­i­an­ism; the oth­er, a pre­scient cri­tique of con­sumerism and mind­less plea­sure. But what hap­pens when these two col­lide? Are we wit­ness­ing a bat­tle of ide­olo­gies,…

🎬 Intro­duc­tion — Why Read All Fours and I Love Dick Side-by-Side? Fem­i­nist aut­ofic­tion has explod­ed into main­stream con­ver­sa­tion over the past decade, but Miran­da July’s All Fours (2024) and Chris Kraus’s I Love Dick (1997; re-issued 2006) still feel unique­ly com­bustible. July’s menopausal nar­ra­tor and Kraus’s younger avant-garde per­sona crack open desire, art-mak­ing, and domes­tic rebel­lion with wit and for­mal audac­i­ty. Read­ing the…

Frank Herbert’s Dune is more than a sweep­ing space epic; it’s a sur­vival man­u­al for the soul, a chron­i­cle of inter­nal con­flict cloaked in the robes of desert war­fare, polit­i­cal intrigue, and inter­stel­lar empire. Like Mar­tyr , Her­bert’s work explores the clash between exter­nal pres­sure and inter­nal trans­for­ma­tion, between des­tiny and self-deter­mi­­na­­tion, and between faith and fear. The Desert as Spir­i­tu­al Ter­rain Arrakis—Dune—is not…
