If you dig dystopians like Brave New World, you should try 1984 (if you haven't already).

+1
Between Brave New World, Farenheit 451, and 1984, I think 1984 is in a class of its own. That it is so frequently frequently associated with those other two books is sort of an injustice. Not that the others are bad books. They're just not nearly as good.

Interested.

Who hasn't read Farenheit 451, Brave New World, and 1984? Aren't these all mandatory reading in high school?
Vigo:
In american schools, I don't think mandatory reading exists anymore. :lol

I read 1984 in high school, not the other two.
