The Last Bastion of Civilization: Japan 2041, a Scenario Analysis

Brexit, Trump, Le Pen: Where Are We Heading?

If you re a contrarian, or simply wish to imagine a radically different future, The Last Bastion of Civilization will challenge your current world-view.

Written as a series of letters and short essays, each of the 18 chapters attacks a present-day assumption with a counter-punch argument of its own.

Sometimes controversial, always challenging, it s a future to consider given today s world affairs.

Blencowe s writing is fast-paced and easily readable. The structure of the book is unusual, in that it's not a novel, though not quite non-fiction. I can best categorize it as fictional journalism, or perhaps an imaginary opinion piece. He expresses himself clearly and his intentions and message are never in doubt. Andrew Henry
