Skillfuly combining the utilitarian discourse and style of totalitarian communist manifesto with literature, Sorokin parody of the production of the novel indicates its inability to simultaneously satisfy the aesthetic qualities that are expected of true work of fiction and obvious of intent which, as such, can only survive in the milieu of a particular system which is creates.
