  • Swastika Night is a futuristic novel published by "Murray Constantine" in 1937 and republished in 1940. Its author's name was a pseudonym for Katharine Burdekin. Swastika Night was a Left Book Club selection in 1940. The novel is based on Hitler's claims that Nazism would create a "Thousand Year Reich". Despite its similarity to an alternate history novel, the text, written prior to World War II, plays out in a way which is extreme though believable, considering the peculiar character of the Nazi State. At the time of writing, the book was not an alternate history but rather a plausible future history, which did not come true. The novel bears striking similarities to Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, published more than a decade later: the past has been destroyed and history is rewritten, language is distorted, few books exist apart from propaganda, and a secret book is the only witness to the past.
