Most of the novel is concerned with the dystopia of the nineteenth century, which brings about a collapse of world civilization. But this dystopia is framed by a future eutopia, which was brought into being by a small group of survivors in New Zealand, members of a small, isolated, egalitarian community. Forced from New Zealand by the growing threat of volcanoes, they settled in what had been New York and founded an egalitarian eutopia based on the teachings of Henry George (1839-97) and Edward Bellamy (1850-98).\ For Henry George\&$\#$39;s explanation of the single tax, see his Progress and Poverty. An Inquiry Into the Cause of Industrial Depressions and Of Increase of Want With Increase of Wealth. The Remedy. San Francisco, CA: W.M. Hinton, 1879. Fiftieth Anniversary Ed. New York: The Robert Schalkenbach Foundation, 1929.
