'''{{amazonurl|isbn=B07DR44YJJ|title=Swastika Night by Katharine Burdekin}}''' (1937)
Like Mary Anne Evans (a.k.a. George Eliot) before her, Burdekin used a male pseudonym to publish this alternative future in which the Nazis win World War II conquer the world and engender a male-dominated totalitarian world society where women are kept as cattle-like breeders and men are mindless automatons.
'''{{amazonurl|isbn=0299038947|title=Kallocain by Karin Boye}}''' (1940)
In a future totalitarian United States where lack of identification is a crime, a genetically-enhanced, world-famous pop singer and talk-show host wakes up one morning to discover that he never existed. The novel won the 1975 John W. Campbell Memorial Award and was nominated for Hugo and Nebula Awards.
