>Only English dystopian novels that turned out wrong are good! The one American book that actually described what the near future would be like is LE BAD!

The book sucks shit, kiddo.
The other two aren't exactly great either but Fahrenheit is its own level of stunning mediocrity.

>> No.21711991

1984 is a lot more specific than people give it credit for. Does it get a bad rap because midwits use it for anything the government does or surveillance?

Absolutely true. Fahreinheit 451 is shlock and nowhere on the level of the other two. It is remembered exclusively due to it's pandering to midwit teachers.
I'm grateful to it for getting me into the Ecclesiastes, though.
