Imagining the end of capitalism

TINA, TAPAS, and Ministry for the Future.

An altered version of Henry Fuseli’s ‘The Nightmare,’ an oil painting depicting an evil demon crouched on the chest of a sleeping woman. The demon’s face has been replaced by Margaret Thatcher’s face.

My latest column for Locus Magazine is “The Unimaginable,” about the relationship of science fiction plays to the future. Sf is a literature of inspiration and warning, not prediction.
