Received this lovely gift in the mail. Thanks! Looking forward to reading it.
Finally got this read. It is not an easy book to read in this day and age. Nearly every sentence is dripping with racism and a colonial outlook that is outrageous today. It was satire at the time it was written and Orwell's mockery is apparent. I'm glad that times have changed.
Passing this on at BookCrossing Toronto meetup this weekend.
