This book is very short but manages to cram a huge amount in. It has sometimes been classified as a long poem. If you like 1984 and We then you will like this book. The ending is much more inspiring than the others and the characters feel more believable. One of the best books I've read and I will read more of her works in the future. The rediscovery of science in a dystopian future adds an extra dimension.
