What Members Thought
Book was good
Makes you think of how one balances the society vs the individual, want vs need, happiness vs worth, and what makes for a meaningful life (with a very different pretext from ivan illytch)
The focus is on pleasure without happiness because there is no getting outside of your box because you have been conditioned
Its not so different than howhumans interact with dogs breeding and controlling their world
