WAY, Peter

WAY, Peter
(1936-)
   UK writer whose first novel, The Kretzmer Syndrome (1968), is a NEAR FUTURE tale set in a bleak conformist UK susceptible to the theories of the eponymous scientist, who articulates PSYCHOHISTORY laws that risk translating the country into a rigid DYSTOPIA. Later novels, like Super-Celeste (1977), Sunrise (1979) and Icarus (1980), areTECHNOTHRILLERS.
