i knew i disliked orwell's writing going into the book but yet again i was so utterly disappointed by the overwhelming misogynistic antisemitic tone that was so familiar of 1984! this book i found hard to read and honestly, utterly boring, so it took a while and i would not reccomend - i was SO excited to hear a criticism on capitalism and this book just reminded me that i don't like to hear anything from orwell!
