- atmosx 12y agoWell yeah, wikipedia says 1949 but 6 months up or down doesn't change much.. About DaN[1]: 'In 1998, the Modern Library ranked Darkness at Noon at number eight on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century.' Although the depth of thought and analysis of the 'soviet regime' was impressive, I had no idea it was that highly praised novel.
