Glad you enjoyed this one. Good thing you read it now though ... you might NOT have enjoyed it back in the day. :)Heather J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/10474181812740579350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734477124047219201.post-4607491204213435462009-04-23T17:54:00.000-07:002009-04-23T17:54:00.000-07:00I read these both years and years ago, and recentl...I read these both years and years ago, and recently read a comparison of the two and their projections of the ways in which future populations would be controlled. I have to say that at the moment, I think Huxley was closer to the mark.Dennis the Vizslahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16894063884048051561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734477124047219201.post-41324293687553612342009-04-24T07:19:00.000-07:002009-04-24T07:19:00.000-07:00I read it back in high school (when it was assigne...I read it back in high school (when it was assigned) but sadly don't remember much of the detail of the story. I suppose I should do a re-read...but I know I liked it then. Kinda funny to think of a "futuristic novel" set 25 years ago though.Courtneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02029168039312647119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734477124047219201.post-87397358208534214012009-04-24T21:23:00.000-07:002009-04-24T21:23:00.000-07:00I've never read this before.
