Synopsis of War with the Newts
En esta novela distópica de ciencia ficción, Karel Čapek presenta una sátira hilarante sobre la catástrofe ecológica y los objetivos financieros. El capitán von Toch descubre una raza de nuevas inteligentes en la Polinesia y decide usarlas para la búsqueda de perlas. Sin embargo, las nuevas se reproducen rápidamente y pronto se convierten en una amenaza para la humanidad. Aclamada como una de las primeras novelas distópicas, 'La guerra de las salamandras' es una obra inteligente, divertida y relevante que aborda temas como el capitalismo y el auge del fascismo.

About the author
Karel Čapek
Karel Čapek was a Czech writer, playwright, critic and journalist. He has become best known for his science fiction, including his novel War with the Newts (1936) and play R.U.R., which introduced the word robot. He also wrote many politically charged works dealing with the social turmoil of his time. Influenced by American pragmatic liberalism, he campaigned in favor of free expression and strongly opposed the rise of both fascism and communism in Europe.
