You should start reading Internet articles because books are obsolete, you pseodo-intellectual.

Nah, that wasn't a brainfuck moment; it can be also spelled that way.

In fact, it it spelled "Koran" in most slavic countries.

Animal Farm.

1984 is interesting, but Animal Farm is the most important book to read if you wish to understand politics.

>>81088465
This. It's quite short, too.
>>
>>81087620
this
>>81087820
also watching 'The Island' is a good mix
If you want a few docs to break the book reading up:
Century of the Self
Human Resources
in regards to books:
The Next 100 Years
The Doors of Perception
>>
You've probably read 1984, right? How about Animal Farm? Its kinda short. Also, Fahrenheit 451. Those are the basics of authoritarian dystopia fiction. After that, read something different. How about a nice sci-fi like The End of Eternity, or something from The Culture series?

Fahrenheit 451 has gotten it closest. It's popular these days to debate Brave New World against 1984, but Captain Beatty's speech in 451 pretty much sums up the current state of things.

If you like distophic sci-fi I suggest Flashback by Dan Simmons

I've read that, and 1984.

War and Peace

Honestly, it's one of the greatest novels for a reason.

Years ago I read the Doors of Perception before taking mescaline. Interesting but not necessary for the trip. Aldous was smart but an absolute madman.

The latest book I read was John Steinbecks Of Mice and Men. Its well worth reading. Dunno if its part of American English class at high schools but it isnt here.

are you trying to say it's not worth reading? Although it's an easy read it's genuinely a good novel.

Animal Farm is an honestly the best allegory I've ever read.

It helps that the man actually lived under communism, which lends credibility.

I understand that the whole plot of Index revolves around religion and magic, especially the Anglican Church and British magicians, but that doesn't mean they don't get everything wrong.

For the mind:
Do androids dream of electric sheep. - Phillip K Dick (or other books by him)
