What are you reading at the moment?

Have you read brave new world???

I read that last year, by Aldous Huxley, and his works(not just that one) are amongst the most important pieces of writing I've read in my life.....

Oh, and I just bought 1984 along with a few other Orwell books, so I can't wait to get into him too!!!! How is 1984 so far???

I have not read Brave New World.

1984 is very grave and depressing. The writing is very well, but it's hard to get over the content. It drones on, and is a slow moving book IMHO. I read it in high school, and I just kinda panic picked it for something to read to sooth the child for bedtime (she's 3ish.) There are may paralleisims to communist / socialist government.
