This is the second time I have read this book and I enjoyed it so much more than the first time I read it. The intricacies of the world that has been created are immaculate. The ties throughout the book from minor inconveniences to major plotlines is impressive, especially from a book written in 1949. It is more relevant today than potentially ever. A must classic.
