I know right?
I read that book when I was 14 and then as required reading in my sophomore year in high school and then again two more times since just for grins and giggles. David Bowie dedicated a whole album to it and Hillary Clinton had Obama remove a scathing political ad comparing her to Big Brother (Or was that the other way around where Obama had an ad from Hillary removed?) - either way it was the pot calling the kettle black.
Animal Farm was a stab at the capitalists, 1984 was a stab at the socialists, did George ever write a book about how shit ought to be run?
