‘Be calm and relaxed, forget and erase.’ Whatever your reasons for wanting to leave the Twentieth Century (nothing on television, indecisiveness, inquisitive about the future), your tour guide ensures you in all languages that the grass in the future field is always greener. Or can we expect the future to bring the end of human individuality, drowned by the ubiquitous technology? Will the 21st Century make us all turn pale? Max Almy provides a light-hearted commentary on the post-modern society.
