This is a reread.  Not as good as I remember, but still amazing. A surprising number of predictions for today: houses with walls as TVs with media that is eerily close to Tic-Tok, people clamshells in their ears (read apple earpods), people becoming suicidal because of loneliness and media addiction,

initially books were ignored because they made people think and feel bad, then the government could easily ban them.  I didn't remember that the book ends with what is pretty clearly a nuclear war.
