Wow. What an incredible book! I didn’t think Orwell could top 1984, but this one was pretty damn close. One thing I really love in books and TV shows is effective use of symbolism and allegory, and this book does not disappoint! A must read for anyone who likes dystopian fiction, classics, fiction, books, or being wowed.

کتابی که در حین خوندنش یاد کشوری میوفتم که درش زندگی میکنم.
نویسنده تصویر اکسپرسیونی از چیزی کشیده که نشون میده که جامعهای که تغییر نکنه، سرنوشتش یکیه.

I know this is required reading in most schools but I guess it wasn't in mine. I've just read this for the first time as an adult and I'm glad I read it now instead of when I was younger, since I don't think I would have appreciated or understood it as well as I do now. I think this was a very interesting and easily understandable portrayal on Orwell's views of Communism perverting the ideal socialism he wanted.
