Wyst: Alastor 1716 (in Russian) - Jack Vance - Bog

Wyst: Alastor 1716 (Russian translation) The Alastor Cluster is made up of thirty thousand inhabited planets whose sole protector of law is the mysterious Connatic. On Wyst, world 1716 of the Cluster, can be found a Utopia - or so it seems; in one great city live millions of people, sharing alike, working in absolute equality for just a few hours a week. But there is something decidedly strange about it all... It is a tumultuous destiny of a young and naive artist, Jantiff Ravensroke, to discover the sinister truth.
