Description
A bleak dystopia by a Nobel laureate—meant as a warning against the growing threat of Nazism—has not lost its relevance even today!
Pearl hunters find enormous salamanders on one of the islands in the Pacific. It quickly becomes clear that the amphibians can speak different languages, read, and reason. Soon industrialists and magnates begin using these trusting and hardworking creatures for construction work across the entire World Ocean.
The number of salamanders grows rapidly, and they form their own highly developed society. Gradually, the amphibians begin to tire of cruel exploitation and ask themselves: do they truly need people? Salamanders all over the world join forces and declare war to humanity—an extermination war.
Written more than eighty years ago, “War with the Salamanders” was intended as a warning against the rising threat of Nazism—but the book remains relevant even now.
