I have only just finished rereading “It Can’t Happen Here” by Sinclair Lewis, and now I find that this waste of human organs seems to be using it as a guide book! Books like this, Orwell’s 1984 and Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 are meant to be prophetic warnings about the evils of tyranny, not used as instruction manuals by bloody tyrants!

I am 66 books into this year, and next up I shall be rereading this one. I have it on my Kindle (other ebook readers are available) but feel that I need an actual physical copy sitting on my politics shelf.

Kate Armstrong’s remark about #SinclairLewis reminded me of his vision of a #dystopian #US and a sanctuary #Canada in #ItCan’tHappenHere. I included it in my piece about how Canada figures in #American #dystopias, written in ‘24 but still painfully relevant. doncurren.blogspot.com/2024/06/what...
