Mi è difficile recensire questo libro perché la trama è molto originale ma allo stesso tempo è noioso, mancano le caratterizzazioni di molti personaggi e la scrittura non è omogenea. Alcune volte i periodi sono lunghi e sofisticati altre brevi e poveri di contenuto.
Mi ricorda la fattoria degli animali, il quale però ho trovato sublime in tutto.
Rimane comunque un classico da leggere e da far leggere agli studenti.
