[Dystopian Domination] Day 6: Jesse Karp Guest Post + Giveaway!

It's the sixth day of Dystopian Domination and the event is in full swing! Today, we have an Elevensies debut author on our blog, Jeff Hirsch, and talks about the rise of the dystopian genre.


Join me in welcoming Jesse on Amaterasu Reads!

-----

Was Star Trek the last optimistic view of the future that really captured the popular imagination? Certainly, it’s the only one that’s really still with us. I think that says something integral about our shift into the darker, more disturbing world of dystopian fiction.

Once upon a time, we as a culture tended to see the future as a great expansion out into space, growing ever upwards into a limitless expanse of stars that was a reflection of our potential. Our science and technology, our popular imagination was very much directed to the pursuit of space travel. That future we once saw for ourselves has, in fact, played out in almost exactly the opposite direction. Instead of expanding outwards, we have moved inwards, exploring the innerspace of computers and the Internet. We have gone from seeing what technology can do for us as an entire species (help us grow and survive) to what technology can do for us individually (propagate our personalities and opinions – much as I’m doing right now).

Published March 21, 2011 by Harcourt
It didn’t help that, as this technology was evolving, our faith in our leadership, and democracy itself, took a nosedive (thanks, Richard Nixon and Vietnam). As our view of the present became darker, how could our view of the future go a different way? I’m speaking from a very United States-centric point of view, but that’s where most of our dystopian fiction is coming from, after all. Among its many exports, the U.S. has always excelled most at propagating our own culture.

At any rate, this more internal view of the future lends itself to narratives that tend to focus on the cracks and seams in our society. Given that those cracks and seams are so much more apparent to us now then they ever have been before (thanks, ubiquitous media coverage), it becomes all the easier to imagine that we might be headed into trouble. That’s what I’ve been mulling over and that’s what I wrote about in Those That Wake.

On the bright side, something else you might have noticed about all this dystopian fiction is that the characters at the centers of the stories don’t tend to be bureaucrats or dictators or torturers. The protagonists are teens fighting these soul-crushing systems, looking for a way out of the seams and cracks. This points to something very promising in us that has always come out in our stories: no matter how bad things get, not matter how dark things look, we are always capable of using our hope to fight back.

Jesse Karp is the author of the YA novel Those That Wake and its forthcoming sequel. He is a school librarian at LREI in New York City, where he lives with his wife and two daughters.

  1. Great post. I'm not really old enough to compare what people thought of the future in the past to what we think today (I *think* that sentence makes sense), but nowadays we do seem to have a pretty bleak outlook. There is a lot of negative feeling but I guess that's better than being completely oblivious. Thanks for the giveaway.

  22. Frustrated Allardyce bemoans defensive lapses

    Agen Bola terpercaya indo11.com reported,Sam Allardyce expressed frustration after seeing his West Ham side twice throw away winning positions in Saturday’s 3-3 draw with West Brom.
    Allardyce’s men went ahead inside the first four minutes at Upton Park thanks a Joe Cole strike, only for West Brom striker Nicolas Anelka to turn things around with a first-half double.
    West Ham recovered excellently in the second half and appeared to be on their way to victory as goals from Modibo Maiga and Kevin Nolan put them back in front.
    However, the hosts could not hang on, with Saido Berahino’s 69th minute strike ensuring a point for Keith Downing’s men, leaving Allardyce – who saw defender James Tomkins limp off after less than 10 minutes – to bemoan West Ham’s failure to maintain a lead.
    “The game was very frustrating,” Allardyce told BBC Sport. “There is a reason why that happened, none of our centre-backs are fit.as reported by Indo Eleven
    “Losing James Tomkins was a big blow for us. Our coping mechanism was playing four full-backs across the back four. That has cost us three points.

  23. Injured Rooney tipped to face Tottenham

    Agen Bola terpercaya indo11.com reported,Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney is expected to recover from a groin strain in time to face Tottenham on New Year’s Day.
    Rooney missed Saturday’s trip to Norwich City after suffering a recurrence of the groin problem that saw him sit out the League Cup quarter-final against Stoke City earlier this month.
    But the Premier League champions are confident that the 28-year-old will be in contention to make an immediate return when Tottenham head north to Old Trafford on Wednesday.
    “Wayne Rooney didn’t travel to Norwich due to the recurrence of a groin strain. He should be available for #mufc vs @SpursOfficial on 1 Jan,” confirmed United via the club’s official Twitter account.
    Rooney, on target in the 3-2 win at Hull City on Boxing Day, is United’s top scorer this season with 11 goals in all competitions.as reported by Indo Eleven.
    Manager David Moyes will be desperate to have Rooney at his disposal against Tottenham as he is already without the services of striker Robin van Persie, who is expected to return next month from a thigh problem.

  27. Aspas Masih Jadi Target Valencia

    Berita terbaru dan terkini dari
    agen bola City Holiday - Valencia dikabarkan menyiapkan tawaran resmi untuk meminjam striker Liverpool Iago Aspas hingga akhir musim ini.
    Berita yang diringkas agen bola City Holiday, Aspas sebenarnya baru bergabung ke Anfield dari Celta Vigo pada musim panas lalu. Ketika bermain di Primera Liga Spanyol, ia tampil gemilang dengan mencetak 12 gol dari 34 pertandingan pada musim lalu.
    Kegemilangan itu justru tidak berlanjut di Liga Primer. Selain keterbatasan peluang masuk ke dalam skuat inti karena kalah bersaing dengan Luis Suarez dan Daniel Sturridge, pemain berusia 26 tahun itu juga gagal mencetak satu pun gol.
    Aspas disebut-sebut memiliki keinginan besar untuk meninggalkan Anfield agar ia mendapat kesempatan banyak bermain.
    Presiden Valencia Juan Antonio Pizzi menyebut Aspas sebagai pemain yang akan meningkat permainanya di paruh musim kedua. Untuk itu, pihaknya masih menjadikan sang striker sebagai target utama peminjaman.

  38. AC Milan harus fokus dalam performa tim

    Berita terbaru dan terkini Bola Soccer dari Agen Bola Indo11 - AC Milan perlahan namun pasti mampu memperbaiki perolehan poin mereka dan mendekati papan atas klasemen. Tapi yang terpenting untuk Clarence Seedorf saat ini adalah Rossoneri fokus pada peningkatan performa, bukan klasemen.

    Agen Bola Indo11 Terpercaya - Sempat terseok-seok di awal musim dengan terjerembab di papan bawah dan berujung pemecatan Massimiliano Allegri, AC Milan kemudian membaik di tangan Seedorf yang diangkat sebagai pelatih baru.

    Sejak enam laga ditangani Seedorf, Milan hanya kalah sekali dan imbang dua kali. Empat kemenangan dikumpulkan Kaka cs untuk mendekatkan diri ke papan atas, hanya selisih lima angka dari Inter Milan di posisi kelima.

    "Kami bisa gila jika melihat klasemen saat ini. Kami hanya harus terus memperbaiki dan meningkatkan performa kami. Barulah kami bisa menganalisa penampilan kami di akhir musim nanti. Tak diragukan lagi bahwa kemenangan atas Sampdoria memberi kami kekuatan lebih dan memompa semangat kami untuk terus lebih baik." ucap Seedorf.
