(? - ) UK author of an sf Satire, Tolstoy Lives at 12N B9 (1971), published at a time when in the UK residents in garden suburbs and meticulously designed exurbs were beginning to live through the downside of the knowing solicitude of the town-planners who thought the destruction wreaked by World War Two was an opportunity. Tolstoy is a boy; his residential address fixes him into a Dystopian environment where nothing is allowed to be unexpected. [JC]
