Boye K. Kallocain (Swedish, neadapt.)
| Author | Boye K. |
| Title | Kallocain (Swedish, neadapt.) |
| Description | The internationally acclaimed novel Kallocain by Swedish writer Karin Boye stands alongside such twentieth-century dystopian classics as George Orwell’s 1984, Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, and Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451. Leo Kall, a gifted chemist, lives in the Worldstate, a country where totalitarianism has triumphed. One day he develops a drug called Kallocain, a kind of truth serum that makes it possible to uncover the criminal secrets and intentions of the state’s citizens. But Leo fails to consider that people may hide more than subversive thoughts about the system. Their deepest feelings and desires may also be secret. And the truth does not always bring good — there are some things it may be better not to know.
This edition of Kallocain”is published in the original Swedish and is intended for readers studying the Swedish language. |
