By the writer of Rosemary's Baby, a horrifying quest into a future only Ira Levin could consider... Considered one of the fantastic dystopian books - alongside Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange and Aldous Huxley's A Daring New World - Ira Levin's frightening glimpse in to the future continues to fascinate listeners even 40 years after publication. The story is defined in a relatively perfect global modern culture. Uniformity is the defining feature; there is only one language and all ethnic groups have been eugenically merged into one competition called "The Family". The entire world is ruled by way of a central computer called UniComp that has been programmed to keep every single human on the top of Earth in balance. People are regularly drugged through regular injections so that they will remain satisfied and cooperative. They are really told where to live, when to eat, whom to marry, when to reproduce. Even the essential facts of characteristics are at the mercy of the UniComp's will - men do not grow facial hair, women do not develop breasts, and it only rains during the night. With a eye-sight as scary as any in the annals of the science fiction genre, This Perfect Day is one of Ira Levin's most haunting books.
