Ilustration Supposing Books Corpalism (Corpalism #1)
Corpalism is the compendium edition comprising - Uprising, The reawakening of Stephanie White and From Democracy to Dictatorship.Uprising
Terry's an ordinary bloke in a dystopian world; like all other ordinary people, he has been saddled with crippling debts from birth. He works in Re-Locations and his job is to send other ordinary people, when unable to pay those debts, to sink estates north of the M4.
He gives no thought to what will happen to them once there; although some part of him knows they'll be forced to eke out a brutal existence, far from family and friends, thrown away by society and left to rot.
That is until, one day, he is late for work once too often and is sacked.
Immediately all his lifelong debts become payable and, unable to discharge them, he is himself relocated, condemned to spend the rest of his days in a 'Boro sink.
When he arrives, he is housed in a run down flat and assigned to sanitation duties.
Unwittingly he attracts the attention of the power structure within the estate and soon finds himself enmeshed in violent intrigue.
But Terry is not all he seems. Why is he there? Who does he really work for?
Aftermath
Extrapolated from a storyline in 'Corpalism' and 'Wise Eyed Open'.
She was a rising star in the Independent movement; a group of revolutionary entrepreneurs, business men and women, professionals and everyday workers who came together to change the political landscape forever.
They are Friday night regulars down the Dog and Duck but this night, the night before an horrific terrorist attack, will be their last together.
She is trapped in a world of darkness, she hears but cannot see, she understands but cannot communicate, she feels each second of her life as it drags by but cannot end it.
How will she survive and can anyone help her?
From Democracy to Dictatorship
A group of entrepreneurs, business men and women, professionals and everyday workers have come together under the leadership of Colin Carpenter to form the Independents, a political group with no party affiliation, no loyalty to the elites or their lobbyists.
If individually elected, they would be free to vote on each bill as they saw fit.
As a new force in British politics the Independents find themselves on a headlong collision course with the Establishment and Sir Phillip Blackmore, Head of British Intelligence.
How far will the Independents be allowed to go before the elites fight back?

I was made aware that this book was presently free on Amazon and reading the synopsis thought it might be worth a read...luckily it was!!it's a book of two parts really,the first part focuses on a future Britain where individual rights have been taken away and the mass populous lie in debt..which isn't too far from where we are today but the book makes this point by using the second part to use current and imagined events to point the origin of the grim future.it's a book which anyone with anyThe novel Corpalism is weighty and lengthy. It actually reminded me of the novel The Stand by Stephen King. To be honest, I am intimidated with reading The Stand because of its enormity. I have an unabridged uncut edition of it but it has been sitting for years already on my bookshelf without me even reading a page from it. Instead of reading it, I just searched the whole summary of The Stand online and read that instead. Corpalism, on the other hand, sounds interesting. Even though some would
Well, wow.3.5 starsIt's a LOT of information, this book. It's a large number of suppositions carried to seemingly-outlandish-but-actually-completely-logical conclusions, each meticulously researched.My mind is still kind of reeling...will try to more thoroughly review at a later date.I will say that he could have used a punctuation expert, especially in the first part, but truly throughout the book. Honestly, though, that's a bit of a nitpick. It's a strong effort and truly made me think. I
Okay, I'm going to level with you here...As an Irish person there were times when reading that in my imagination I leapt up on a chair & screamed "TASTE OF YOUR OWN MEDICINE, BITCHES!!?" But really that wouldn't be in the least bit helpful. & I wasn't brought up that way. ;) & I understand I could be setting myself up for abuse in saying ^^^ that. But I'm just being honest. Having your identity eroded is a horrible, & at times frightening experience to live through. It's one I
4 stars for the message of this book. I really liked what the author was getting at in this one regarding the socio-political commentary and I tend to agree with a lot of what he had to say.3 stars for the book as a whole. I really got into the first part. I thought that section was pretty stellar writing-wise, and I read through it fast. However, the other parts didn't really go together too well for me, and I felt as if the message of the book was being beaten over my head repeatedly
Very grateful for this recommendation - I enjoyed every part of the book. Some of them may have seemed less enticing, interesting or even unnecessary for the story as a whole but nevertheless, it was an amazing and fulfilling experience. I was not concerned about the size of the book - if I like a book, I only wish for more pages...The arguments and ideas were clear, and the use of current topics refreshing. Put this in my Read Again collection on kindle, and it may well find its way into my
Corpalism: Arun EllisImagine a world where people are no longer able to voice their opinions, speak up and express their own thoughts and allowed to live, as they want. Imagine living in a repressive socially controlled environment where only a few select or elite few make the decisions where you live, work, what you eat and where you sleep for you. Dystopian societies feature this type of social control repressing those who live under their domination. Ideas and works in these societies explore
