Vidim prica se o 1984 i Vrlom novom svijetu, pa mi pade na pamet jedno poredjenje te dvije knjige od strane Cristopher Hitchensa.
Cristopher Hitchens wrote: Orwell's was a house of horrors. He seemed to strain credulity because he posited a regime that would go to any lengths to own and possess history, to rewrite and construct it, and to inculcate it by means of coercion. Whereas Huxley ... rightly foresaw that any such regime could break but could not bend. In 1988, four years after 1984, the Soviet Union scrapped its official history curriculum and announced that a newly authorized version was somewhere in the works. This was the precise moment when the regime conceded its own extinction. For true blissed-out and vacant servitude, though, you need an otherwise sophisticated society where no serious history is taught.[20]
Drugim rijecima, Huxleyeva distopija je danas aktuelnija od Orwellove. Rezimi ne teze da kontrolisu svaki aspekt zivota pojedinca, ali kontrolu ostvaruju suptilnijim metodama - zaglupljivanjem masa i kreiranjem prototipa gradjana koji zive veoma ogranicene potrosacke zivote
Kad sam vec kod Huxleya, moram reci da sam se svojski potrudio da procitam Perennial Philosophy, ali i dalje nisam presao polovinu, to je projekt na duge staze
Island na zalost nisam citao, ali bih definitivno volio.
Sto se Orwella tice, sa njim dugo nisam bio u kontaktu, jos od doba citanja Zivotinjske Farme i 1984, nekad krajem srednje skole
Al sad bih rado procitao njegovu "Homage to Catalonia" (da li je neko citao?), pa cu potraziti cim zavrsim sa trenutnom literaturom
i čitati sf 
čisto radi istraživanja
