Written by William Luther Pierce, The Turner Diaries covers the story of Earl Turner in a violent revolution. It depicts a world set in the near future of 1978, where Earl Turner is a hero in a world taken over by minorities, where the government is run by the entire jewish population. Throughout the book, Turner describes what happened and how the actions of different groups of people led to it, demonizing minority groups of society as he goes along. Ultimately leading to Day of the Rope in which he Is painted a hero for saving the country.
A focus in the book was an authoritarian government which we had connected to 1984. The point made in the book is one of a controlling and authoritarian democracy that is wrong for the people, but in The Turner Diaries, a noticeable difference is that the government still operates under the guise of a democracy.
