What is Dystopian Literature?

Introduction to dystopian fiction, dystopian novels and dystopian style.

🔠 Fancy words I used:

Obscurity - "It wasn’t a popular publication at the time and has since faded into obscurity."

Privy - "Very often told from first person, or limited third person perspective, the reader is privy to the fears, hatred and curiosity that the main character holds towards those in charge. "

Bleak - "Dystopian fiction does indeed offer a bleak image of the future based on today or the time of writing’s political situation."

Semblance - "One way that characters can access some semblance of humanity or connection is through art, music and literature."

Resurgence - "In recent years, dystopian fiction has seen a huge resurgence in the novel, graphic novel, TV and film industry."
