The ideas presented here are extremely good. The way society shapes you into a cruel, blood thirsty individual and how happiness can be reached through peace and not necessarily though suffering. Sadly, the execution isn’t done very well, the beginning is pretty bad in my opinion, which lowers the rating quite a lot. For 16 pages (couldn’t find the exact edition here) it was okay.
