Simple writing style and it gets the point across well. :) The first classic I read that is not assigned by the teacher. Really, really liked it. If anyone doesn’t like classics because of its flowery writing, this is the book for them. ALSO history nerds, please read—especially if you’re interested in the Cold War and differing ideologies. The allegory is awesome.
