The Iron Heel (Annotated)

This is an annotated edition. First distributed in 1907, "The Iron Heel" is Jack London's dystopian novel about the rise of an oligarchic tyranny in the United States. Showing the communist perspectives that were held by London himself and that were pervasive toward the start of the twentieth century, "The Iron Heel" recounts to the account of occasions far later on when a little, rich class crushes out the middle class and effectively rules with brutality for three centuries until a revolution ushers in a new era called the "Brotherhood of Man". The novel is set fundamentally around the San Francisco Bay Area and is told as a rediscovered tragically deceased original copy written by a lady named Avis Everhard, who gives up her privileged life to join the obstruction and oust the abusive system. As significant a commentary today as when it was first composed, London's novel was far ahead of its time and is to a great extent credited with inspiring George Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty-Four". "The Iron Heel" is a chilling depiction of a potential future world and a great work on the class battle which has overwhelmed the vast majority of mankind's history.
