This is interesting. I am in the middle of rereading Huxley's "Brave New World, Revisited." I highly recommend it. I'm finding it even more relevant now than I did 40 years ago in high school. Huxley and George Orwell were so ahead of their times!
Recently I read "Down and Out in Paris and London" by Orwell and don't know how I managed to miss it.
Oh, yeah, I'm a commie. Got a red shirt to prove it too! LOL
Love,
