Yes, I should be starting to pack for Spain, or I should be reading my library book 'Python Programming for Win32', or I should be doing several other things.
Yet, this morning, I curled up on the living room couch, and finished reading "It Can't Happen Here", Sinclair Lewis' 1935 novel of Fascism in America.
The parallels with today are many. Here's a summary.
Lewis' tale commences with the 1936 election - at the time of writing, a future event. Today, the book reads like the Alternate Histories of Harry Turtledove and others.
Very chilling.
Greets to the webmaster of this wonderful site! Keep up the good work. Thanks.
