you?

orwell's 1984 definitely

uhm, pollitt and bouckaert actually too (was mandatory for a uni course)

Haven’t read 1984, just excerpts. Pollitt and Bouckaert are new to me. I will look them up. What did you read of theirs?

reading 1984 helps understanding a bunch of the cultural references too and be more in the loop of things

any specific books of theirs you've enjoyed? 💜

Hesse, so many. As a young man this is a good start: https://archive.org/details/DemianHermannHesse_201905

Heller, the classic. A single paragraph could have me laughing, gasping in horror, and then in tears by the end: https://archive.org/details/catch2201hell
