December 2023, Indiana – A new novel written by Robert Villegas is a new narrative in the literature of dystopian societies.
The book begins:
“We live in
a city on a river. Our city is called New America, and our river is the river
Styx. We don’t know how the river got this name, but it is a very wide body of
water and, they say, on the other side of the river are some very bad people.
We have been at war with them all our lives and almost all the news we receive
is about the war and how our Supreme Leader is winning it. We give the bodies
of our young to fight this war and some never return. They are lost in the
greyness on the other side of the river. We never think about losing them
because they don’t know their parents, and their parents don’t know them.”
Villegas
says about his book: “Orwell was a socialist. I am an objectivist” which
establishes the idea that objectivism is much more the superior philosophy to
answer the socialists.
Robert
Villegas is an American writer. He is an independent philosopher with a strong
focus on the practical consequences of ideas. He considers the philosophy of
ideas to be a central factor in creating a better society and he offers both a
critical discussion of modern philosophy as well as practical solutions and

and indeterminacy. His work stands on its own.
