Land of the Blind: Difference between revisions

At last Joe appears to submit, but outside people are revolting anew. Thorne is killed by his wife in the bath, a la Marat, and the boy nephew of Junior is put in power. Joe, however, being part of the revolution before, also refuses to follow this restoration, so he is left in prison. It becomes unclear what is real or not as he writes of his experiences, apparently hallucinating visits by his family. A reference by Thorne earlier about Rudolf Hess being left alone in jail, with it torn down after he died because the memory of him is too much, gets born out with Joe. He knows too much and will not side with any oppressor.

 

 

* [[Full-Circle Revolution]] - People become disgusted with the new regime, restoring the old. The "meet the new boss, same as the old boss" bit is Lampshaded when Joe says "under the old regime man exploited man, but since the revolution it's the other way around."
