of the feral children (en Inglés) - luchte, james

Summoning-up the atmosphere of the '60s beat writers, as it has mutated throughout the social deprivations and growing gap between "society" and the increasingly alienated youth of the Britain of the past four decades, Luchte tells a fascinating and engrossing tale of life for the tragic, post-Millenial abandoned generation, left to fend for themselves by surviving on the scraps of our ultra-consumer society, in the wilderness of a highly exploitative, corrupt and uncaring misanthropic political and social landscape. In a parallel Britain, barely distinguishable from our own contemporary era of economic, political and social decay, what begins in the surroundings of a London squat, as a life-cycle of hedonistic and intellectual ecstacy and exploration for the "feral children" explodes out into the streets and beyond as the children find their voices. As they howl and cry for freedom from the predatory system, translating these "primal screams" into direct-action, critical, violent confrontations ensue against both the rampant immoral commercialistic institutions and the brutal police-state, intensifying to a global scale with horrific results and culminating in an epic existential eruption! As a first attempt at fiction, Luchte's "Of The Feral Children" is incredibly insightful, gathering all the threads, elements, problems and tensions of contemporary, post-millenial Western society in all its alienating glory, and weaving them into a highly entertaining, visceral and thought-provoking vision of the ability for those who are ready and willing to act to radically alter the very face of reality itself! A truly Dionysian feast for the contemporary, enquiring post-modern mind!
