It is a good story. And I just can't imagine how the people of that era handled such ideas by the author. Even dacades after its first publication, some of the ideas presented in the book are still frowned upon.

The funny thing about utopian and dystopian stories is that they bring out some truth in the current age. Is it possible that civilization is slowly going that way?

pretty cool image of a would-be-utopian dystopian futuristic society, especially considering when the novel was written (1931)

definitely reminiscent of Orwell's 1984, but somehow almost more subtly dystopian

wooooehhhhwoooooeeeeee
