Description
A novel by the well-known writer Elena Chudinova tells of our possible future. One fine morning the European Union declares Islam a state religion. Notre-Dame Cathedral becomes a cathedral mosque, as once happened with St. Sophia in Constantinople. The novel tells about terror and resistance, about ghettos and the catacomb Catholic Church—it could become a grim prophecy, much like Huxley’s famous “Oh, this wonderful new world” or Orwell’s “1984.”
“The old” Europeans are exiled to ghettos; their daughters are taken to harems and brothels. The Catholic church goes into catacombs, as during persecution of the first Christians. Only a small handful of underground fighters still wage the struggle. To submit or fight— even without hope of winning—this is the choice facing everyone who still remembers their glorious ancestors. Behind the adventures of the novel’s heroes lies a difficult choice that we must understand.
