Book Synopsis
The essence of life in an oligarchy like George Orwell presents in ''1984'' is that freedom of choice is virtually non-existent. But what happens when so many trivial and meaningless choices inundate a culture such as our own and freedom itself becomes devalued? In ''A Do-It-Yourself Dystopia'', through a variety of essays, Steven Carter addresses this and other issues in a wide-ranging search for hidden oligarchies of the American self.
