Sheep Look Up

Is it possible to stop the rolling downhill Western world? What will happen to humanity in the near future, and does it have a future? America, 1980s. The greed of the largest corporations has led to irreparable pollution of water,... air, and food. The population suffers from malnutrition and all kinds of diseases, and the number of unemployed on the streets increases every day. The media feeds the people tales of unity, solidarity, and a bright future, but fewer and fewer believe in all this each day. Researcher Austin Train unexpectedly becomes a symbol of the common American's struggle for their rights. In the dystopian cautionary novel of 1972 "Sheep Look Up", Brunner skillfully exposes all the pain points of globalization, facing nature and civilized man in a deadly confrontation.
