{"product_id":"critical-theory-and-dystopia-patricia-mcmanus-9781526139733","title":"Critical Theory and Dystopia","description":"Critical theory and dystopia offers a uniquely rich study of dystopian fiction, drawing on the insights of critical theory. Asking what ideological work these dark imaginings perform, the book reconstructs the historical emergence, consolidation and transformation of the genre across the twentieth century and into our own, ranging from Yevgeny Zamayatin's We (1924) and Aldous Huxley's Brave New World (1932) to Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange (1963) and Suzanne Collins's Hunger Games series (2000s and 2010s). In doing so, it reveals the political logics opened up or neutered by the successive moments of this dystopian history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patricia McManus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526139731\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526139733\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/21\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Patricia McManus","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44068466688255,"sku":"9781526139733","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_59a3b217-b2b8-4f8b-85d3-2ed99bffded4.jpg?v=1685419166","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/critical-theory-and-dystopia-patricia-mcmanus-9781526139733","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
