In Harry Turtledove’s Powerless, the citizens of the West Coast People’s Democratic Republic know their place and they know what’s expected of them. One day, however, one citizen decides not to hang the obligatory Workers of the World, Unite! propaganda poster in his window…and soon, the entire political order is crashing down around him.
