Bleiler s Science Fiction: The Early Years and also in Science Fiction and Fantasy Literature, Volume 1 By R. Reginald; ** MEGA RARE Early Radium-Age (Pre- Golden Age) Science Fiction; ** A classic early Apocalypse Novel about The End of the World is preceded by the Bolshevik Invasion of Europe and the Black Plague; *** Author Oliver Baldwin had been captured by the Bolsheviks while an advisor to the Armenian army after WWI. He became a convert to socialism afterwards, and wrote this strange novel forecasting the end of Western civilisation ("Konyetz" is Russian for "the End") as the Jewish-Bolshevik conspiracy steamrollers its way across Europe and into a Labour-governed Britain, bombing and gassing as it goes. Black cloth with red lettering and decoration on front cover and spine; *** "Konyetz," a novel attributed to Martin Hussingtree, a pseudonym believed to be used by Oliver Baldwin, son of the British Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin, is a rare piece of literature that delves into the genre of dystopian fiction. Published in 1921, it presents a grim forecast for Western civilization, encapsulating the fears and anxieties of its time. The narrative unfolds a scenario where a Jewish-Bolshevik conspiracy propels a relentless assault across Europe, culminating in a catastrophic war that engulfs Britain under Labour governance. This work is an early example of apocalyptic fiction, excluding religious texts, and stands out for its historical context and the unique perspective it offers on the societal tensions of the early 20th century. It's a reflection of the era's political climate, exploring themes of conspiracy, war, and the collapse of societies. Despite its controversial subject matter, "Konyetz" contributes to the understanding of the period's literary landscape and the evolution of dystopian narratives. The book is available for public domain access, allowing readers and scholars to explore this unusual prediction of civilization's end, a testament to the enduring interest in dystopian themes and their relevance to contemporary discourse.
