2084

A chilling portrayal of a future dominated by Islamic fundamentalists who have imposed an oppressive caliphate, where autonomous thought is forbidden. Citizens of the Abistan kingdom kneel in prayer and submit to a single god, while an Orwellian surveillance system monitors and punishes those who rebel. Against this backdrop, one man, Ati, begins to question the religious totalitarianism – but to do so is to risk everything. "[2084] is a cry of freedom, a call to rebellion, a gripping satirical novel of ideas, and an indictment of the religious fundamentalism," according to author Michel Houellebecq.
