I've owned a copy of this book for more years than I can remember, but I opted to listen to an audiobook version while on vacation... I don't think I appreciated it as much as I could have if I'd read it with my eyes. It's an intriguing story and haunting in some respects as we do face censorship in the present time. I will likely be rereading this when I'm able to more thoughtfully.
