Kingsley Amis
The Alteration
New York: Viking, 1976.
First printing.
Amis has written a satirical novel about an alternative religious future for Europe, where Luther was made a Pope and the Protestant Church never happened.
In this society, the Church holds terrifying sway, controlling the singers it needs for services and encouraging the castrating of choir boys with particularly sweet voices.
A fine dystopian fantasy.
