Blind Faith

Imagine a world where everyone
knows everything about everybody. Where 'sharing' is valued above all,

Trafford
wouldn't call himself a rebel, but he's daring to be different, to stand
out from the crowd. In his own small ways, he wants to push against the
system. But in this world, uniformity is everything. And even tiny
defiances won't go unnoticed.

Ben Elton's dark, savagely comic

combines with a sex-obsessed, utterly egocentric culture. In this world,
nakedness is modesty, independent thought subversive, and ignorance is
wisdom.
