The author of an earlier work on George Orwell, Rodden was stimulated to undertake an investigation of the German Democratic Republic by his perceptions of the similarities between Orwell's anti-utopia in Nineteen Eighty-Four and the Communist political system that arose out of the Soviet occupation of eastern Germany after the Second World War. Thus, what I am suggesting is the possibility that Schuyler, instead of creating a utopia in the Black Empire serials, wrote an anti-Utopia reminiscent of Black No More to once again expose the dangers of race chauvinism. |
