Do you remember watching Play for Today when it was on TV in the 1970s or 1980s? If so, please get in touch (see email address in image) I'm *especially* wanting to hear from any viewers who lived in Northern Ireland, Northern England, the Midlands, or saw it outside the UK!

The Time Machine, Brave New World, 1984: these weren’t the first dystopian novels. There's an interesting history of Victorian and Edwardian literature looking at the impact of modernity on humans and finding it worrying. Today in pulp I look at some early dystopian books…
