Great Book, poor wikipedia entry

[edit]

I don't feel qualified to write a proper wikipedia article on this book, but since the information on it is very poor for the interested reader, let me just say it is an amazing book, and of the same calibre and spirit as Orwell's '1984', and Evgeni Zamiatin's 'We', if not better. There's a very human thought and constant re-rationalization process present in this book, and richer in sensitivity and emotional undertones which sets it apart from the other two. Lastly, possibly due to the fact that it is written by a female author, I felt gave it a distinct character from the other books, as if seeing the same dystopian events from a very different lens, focusing on the individual, and the value of life, emotions, and personal responsibility, rather than the futility, coldness and manipulation of the state, faltered or crooked logic, treatises on war, heroism, anti-heroism, etc. but I'll leave that to the reader to agree or disagree. :) Tpapastylianou (talk) 18:36, 29 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
