Same writer who's book "Little Big Man" the novel the movie was based upon, wrote a novel "Nowhere" published in '85. Story describes a County "fictitious" in Central Europe.
" This tyrannical principality operates on absurd customs: bills go unpaid to perpetuate a national debt economy, police officers humbly self-flagellate in stocks if accused of impoliteness, and societal institutions like churches and schools are supplanted by children idly watching outdated films all day.

Thomas Louis Berger (July 20, 1924 โ July 13, 2014) was an American novelist. Probably best known for his picaresque novel Little Big Man and the subsequent film by Arthur Penn, Berger explored and manipulated many genres of fiction throughout his career, including the crime novel, the hard-boiled detective story, science fiction, the utopian novel, plus re-workings of classical mythology, Arthurian legend, and the survival adventure.[1]
