The Predicament of Redwood Paddock — Hylton Smith

Such political satire could certainly be considered as pure fantasy, and although it is a work of fiction, there may just be elements which are uncomfortably familiar. A fledgling immigrant council minion decides to confront political correctness in society. A lofty ambition for a lowly servant of the presiding regime. He quickly grasps the currency of duplicity in the corridors of power, and has to seek out allies to deal with 'merchants of enlightenment' of the establishment, the psychologists. The unfolding of this 'David and Goliath' encounter is both surprising and predictable. Making a difference has many cloaks.
