Hi! I’m looking for some good book recommendations! I’m looking for something like Beautiful World, Where are You by Sally Rooney. It’s about 4 friends and they all date each other at different times. However, she injects a bit of political theory in to the story, about how conservative isn’t sustainable because nothing can be conserved. It was a really good part of the book, I though. Any books where they inject political theory like that? Also, political fiction is welcome. I enjoyed reading these books:
It Can’t Happen Here by Sinclair Lewis Plot Against America by Philip Roth 1984 by George Orwell Brave New World by Aldous Huxley It Happened Here by Richard Dresser
Thank you!
If you liked Brave New World and 1984, try We by Yevgeny Zamyatin. First published in 1924, it predates Brave New World by several years. Written by a Russian naval architect who had become disillusioned with the Soviet government, it’s fairly grim and somewhat bizarre, but very interesting nontheless.
