About This Item

Abacus: London, 2003. First edition (& 1st printing). Trade paperback original. Satirical sf novel (though packaged as mainstream) set in a future world of globalisation and marketing hype. Fine (as new) copy.

Synopsis

Jennifer Government is a novel written by Max Barry. Published in 2003, it is Barry's second novel, following 1999's Syrup. The novel is set in a dystopian alternate reality in which most nations (now controlled by the United States) are dominated by for-profit corporate entities while the government's political power is extremely limited. Some readers consider it similar in satiric intent to George Orwell's 1984, but of a world with too little political power as opposed to too much.
