2024: I will never shut up about this book - I love it so much. Witty, entertaining, silly at times, but perfectly highlights how, what can seem like, one minor censor, spirals into complete censorship and absurdity.

2022: I found this to be absolutely delightful! From the start it reminded me so much of Animal Farm and I was hooked right away with such a ridiculous concept for a society. I love stories told in epistolary style and this was the perfect way of telling a story like this! Highly recommend for anyone that loves language.
