seminal work. perturbing. resonates with today


I've been hearing about this book since forever. It's much more than a book - it's a study on mass manipulation, emotion detachment, lack of free will. A universe inside itself - the author devises the creation, build up and full replacement of the current language and visit a supposed manual of it.
As a story it runs at different paces throughout the book. Very well described, timeless and frightening in it's echoes in today's social and cultural progress.
Not giving 5 to the story as it's so intricate and moving, but also the changes of pace leaves the reader somehow ungrounded and sad. Very well put.
