Welcome to Chromatacia, where life is strictly regulated by one’s limited color perception. Civilization has been rebuilt after an unspoken “Something that Happened” five hundred years before. Society is now color vision—segregated, everything dictated by an individual’s visual ability, and governed by the shadowy National Color in far-off Emerald City. Twenty-year-old Eddie Russett, a Red, is about to go on trial for a murder he didn’t commit, and he’s pretty certain to be sent on a one-way trip to the Green Room for execution by soporific color exposure.

Творчество писателя-фантаста и популяризатора науки Сергея Александровича Снегова поняли и приняли не сразу. Его первый роман "Люди как боги" отвергли подряд сразу четыре издательства, потому что в обществе будущего, которое он создал в своем произведении, ощущалась явная нехватка коммунистической идеологии. И все-таки именно этот роман, впоследствии переведенный на восемь языков, принес писателю мировую известность. В сборнике Памфлеты мы хотели бы представить вам менее известные, но от этого не менее интересные произведения писателя, написанные в стиле политической сатиры.

Ludwig Kalisch war Gründer der Sonntagszeitung "Der Demokrat" und der Karnevalszeitschrift "Narrhalla", in welchen er Feudalismus und Zensur bekämpfte, was Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts ein höchst gefährliches Unterfangen war. Nachdem er zum Tode verurteilt wurde, lebte und arbeitete er als Journalist in London und Paris. Seine Satiren spiegeln sehr aufschlussreich und humorvoll die autoritären Macht- und Gesellschaftsstrukturen einer Zeit dar, in welcher die freiheitliche Knospe der Demokratie in Europa begann zu versuchen sich langsam zu entfalten.
