Have you ever wondered what the world would look like if Nazi Germany won World War II? Have you ever read a novel or watched a movie set in this notional world and asked, “why is there nothing about the economy?” Who owns these factories? Is it American capitalists, German capitalists, or the state? Why isn’t the newscaster talking about the stock market? Is insider trading legal? How do college admissions work? How regulated is the housing market?
If you asked these kinds of questions, Prison of the Nation, A Novel of the Axis Victory and the Stonk Market is the novel for you! Taking place in the year 2095, it portrays a world that is still an oppressive, totalitarian ethnocracy but which has convergently evolved many of the features of modernity such as cell phones, index funds, PowerPoint presentations, and online dating. If The Man in the High Castle was a lurid mixture of German Nazism and Normal Rockwell America, Prison of the Nation is German Nazism meets Silicon Valley.

I'm a third of the way through - very good. Generally realistic, though it seems like a real ghetto would have more crime and general chaos.
