“A strange, wondrous, challenging, enriching book….Beautiful and powerful…you will not encounter another book like it.”

— National Review online

In Digital Barbarism, bestselling novelist Mark Helprin ( Winter’s Tale, A Soldier of the Great War ) offers a ringing Jeffersonian defense of private property in the age of digital culture, with its degradation of thought and language and collectivist bias against the rights of individual creators. A timely, cogent, and important attack on the popular Creative Commons movement, Digital Barbarism provides rational, witty, and supremely wise support for the individual voice and its hard-won legal protections.
