Microdystopias: Aesthetics and Ideologies in a Broken Moment - Hardcover

by Asbjørn Grønstad (Editor), Lene M. Johannessen (Editor), Janne Stigen Drangsholt (Contribution by)

In contrast to classic dystopia's manifestations of world-shattering and -changing events, Microdystopias: Aesthetics and Ideologies in a Broken Moment introduces and develops the idea of microdystopia as the emerging genre for our times of imperceptibly shrinking horizons of possibilities in relation to film, series, and literature.
