  1. 1. The End Of The World News by Anthony Burgess

    This novel is an ambitious and unconventional triptych that interweaves three distinct narratives: the psychoanalytic adventures of Sigmund Freud, the escapades of Leon Trotsky aboard a ship to New York, and a science fiction tale about the impending collision of Earth with a rogue planet. Through a daring blend of historical fiction, political drama, and speculative storytelling, the book explores themes of human desire, societal upheaval, and the existential threats facing civilization. Its innovative structure and the juxtaposition of seemingly disparate stories challenge readers to consider the interconnectedness of personal, political, and cosmic destinies.
