1948 is a comic verse-novel, auaciously rewriting George Orwell's
Nineteen Eighty-four in Pushkin sonnets. Set during the 1948
Olympics, it offers a radical alternative history of the Cold War,
in which Britain has a Labour-Communist coalition government, the
Royal Family has fled to Rhodesia and the US threatens to impose an
economic blockade on Britain. Featuring cartoons drawn especially
for the book, 1948 combines hard-boiled detective novels and
Pushkin sonnetry, film-noir and Ealing comedy.
