In terms of the political aspect, even if written for satirical purposes and the era of the book's release kept in mind, the continued belittling of the female characters is hard to read and unpalatable especially considering the detail went into. The class separation and social commentary was unexpected but again most likely is to reflect the society of Abbott. I thought the writing of it was fine and served the purpose to demonstrate the nonsensical nature of the barriers between the shapes.
Overall, it was a good read and felt an even better one the longer it went without mentioning the fragility and inferiority of the women.
Moderate: Sexism and Misogyny
