Flawed utopia. London has broad, straight, clean streets, no pollution, and good housing, but it is gradually revealed that this is the result of authoritarianism under a foreign king after a war and revolution. The eutopia is a very dull place. Women are in two castes, outdwellers who are free and indwellers who are veiled; men prefer the latter. All religion has been abolished, and this is the main theme of the novel, which depicts the struggles of believers to live in the kingdom and escape from it. Ireland and Russia are Christian and not part of the kingdom. Anti-Semitic.
