Nineteen Fortyeight is a comic versenovel, audaciously rewriting George Orwell’s Nineteen Eightyfour in Pushkin sonnets. Set during the 1948 London Olympics, it offers a radically alternative history of the Cold War, in which Britain has a LabourCommunist coalition government, the Royal Family have fled to Rhodesia and the US threatens to impose an economic blockade on Britain.
