The Iron Heel

The Iron Heel is a novel by American writer Jack London, first published in 1908.
It is a dystopian work about the rise of an oligarchic tyranny in the United States. It is perhaps the novel in which Jack London's socialist views are most explicitly on display. A forerunner of science fiction novels and stories of the 1960s and 1970s, the book stresses future changes in society and politics while paying much less attention to technological changes.
