The Door: a dystopian police state controlled through CCTV: A homeless man, corrupt doctor, and hermit put on trial for life
Cast into an Earth like ours, Non—a man without identity—finds himself among people indifferent to suffering. Snares are around every street corner. Closed captioning TV makes sure everything is in order.
In iWear G&C, a city-like supermarket, Non is a privileged eye surgeon. Flying blind, he must relearn cataract surgery and how to prescribe eye drops. He treads lightly or exposes himself as a fraud and agent saboteur.
In a world eating itself alive, The Door is about a foolish but lovable hero continuing to survive through cleverness, braveness and a bit of luck.

I would describe the style as a cross between absurdist (reminding me of Beckett's "Waiting for Godot") and dystopian fiction (reminding me of Orwell's "Nineteen Eighty-Four"). It's a little difficult to follow in places but the situations that the main character gets themself into and the way they narrate their thoughts and observations is interesting. Pretty good for a first time author and self-published.
