Description
In 2050, Scotland has become an open prison, where people are controlled and barred from the countryside. For David, this is a bleak reality. His father, missing years earlier, leaves a huge void in his life. David's own life has been turned upside down - he was fired from his post as a researcher for expressing views deemed "misogynistic". Now, he lives in a soulless tower block in Glasgow, with no real community to speak of. David is summoned to the State Department of Work and Well-being, where he is assigned to a six-month work placement at the protein factories on the Outer Hebrides. As he reflects on his past, David's thoughts turn to his father and their childhood. This introspection becomes a powerful critique of the totalitarian system that surrounds him. A gripping and thought-provoking novel, Gulag Caledonia is a story of survival, resistance, and the human spirit in the face of oppression.
