This is pivotal and thought provoking read. The approach completely breaks down the way you perceive reality and questions the very social construct. It explores the world through the lens of capitalism, socialism, communism and talks about a new society to reshape the world. It addresses the urgent issues of resource depletion and the ideas of space colonization and alike are uniquely addressed. It really attracts much interest.
I absolutely devoured this book and am totally intrigued with the narrative. It’s so much different but good different. It very much relevant and integral in today’s world. Also, the writing is immensely engaging. You should definitely give it a read specially if you have an interest in politics or current affairs or dystopia or science fiction.
