The story is set in a dystopian future where the themes of class struggle and revolution are central, likely revolving around the lives of Avis and Ernest Everhard, who play critical roles in the narrative. This book delves into the socio-political dynamics of the time, reflecting on the challenges faced by the working class against a tyrannical oligarchy.
