I don't really know how to write this one as I am not really one of those who report on books.
Just wanna say to y'all who didn't read the book you should really go get it. It tells the story of a very dark world, where each uniqueness of our world is exaggerated and shaded, where all is inspected, monitored and controlled by a central authority. a centralized world, where nothing is beautiful but one thing - the common truth. How does living in a world like this feels? How far fetched is this world from ours? What is the nature of truth, and freedom?
These are my thoughts. hope that's working for you.
Don't forget a Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.
I haven't read that one yet, but I bought it for my Kobo yesterday.
It's good, a far more likely scenario than 1984. They use something other than terror to keep everyone in line. Definitely worth the read.
Breve New World is probably the most overrated Huxley book. Island is a much better summation of Huxley’s final perspective, and it is about as far from Brave New World as you can get. That said, I think BNW is still a good book, but it shouldn’t be seen as Huxley’s greatest work, nor did he see it as such.
I'll have to read it than, I've only read a Brave New World.
