"On aurait du dire non. Résister d'avantage"
Short, very easy to read and much much more than just a story!
This book isn't just the words on the paper. Actually this book is mostly the words in between the lines, words that are heavy with meaning and most definitely are shouted. Shouted because everyone should hear them, shouted for the sake of freedom and peace, shouted for what is right and what we believe is right, I think so at least. I believe the message in this story is that we must stand up for what we believe should be the case, what we believe is the right thing, that we should stay with our beliefs and not let anyone else's crush them because otherwise we lose our freedom and the situation can only get worse from there.
I recommend this to everyone!!!

You know those books that make you shiver after you've finished it. Yeah...my teeth were chattering.

A very very short read, but worth the small amount of time it take to finish! What an interesting short story about a guy who goes along with what the government says is for the best...until it’s too late.
It starts with a simple (and ridiculous) mandate that any cat or dog that isn’t brown is bad, but that mandate quickly escalates and expands. It’s interesting to see how easy it is for the main character to rationalize the government’s power and surrender his freedom and the freedom of others so quickly because it doesn’t really affect him and his daily happiness that much.
Honestly, I wish this was a whole book and not just a short story. 4 out of 5 stars.

Me pareció muy extraño leer algo tan cortito, me tomó como 10 minutos.
Siento una especie de ambición de saber más, tener una perspectiva más amplia de esa realidad, pero no hay más. Eso es.
Esa es la información que te entregan y suficientes aprendizajes puedes sacar de ella.
Hay que poner atención a las jugadas de los poderosos, las dictaduras no empiezan de un día para otro, los sistemas de opresión tampoco.
