MIHSW: The Iron Heel by Jack London
Notas del episodio
In The Iron Heel, Jack London ditches the howling wilderness for the howling engines of capitalist doom. Set in a chillingly plausible near-future America, this revolutionary dystopia follows Avis Everhard as she recounts her husband Ernest’s resistance against a ruthless oligarchy—the Iron Heel.
