My Opinions: Although the beginning starts out really slow, Rand is able to pick up the pace once the setting and characters are introduced to the reader. It is short and quick, yet Rand is able to fit so much rich writing into this novel which really absorbed my attention. It is a unique Utopian world where there is no individuality or the word "I" and there must be perfect harmony between every brother and sister of the society. Not only is it all sorts of shades of gray, but in this futuristic setting characters use only primitive technology dating back to caveman times. One man named Equality is different, physically and emotionally. He has ideas which are forbidden. He has a mind which is unusual. This book showcases his struggles and his rewards.
