-<p>A nice light read; the story is obvious and by the hundreth page
-the ending is clear, but it provided a bit of a break from heavier
-reading for me. I must say that anyone who has read <em>Brave New World</em>
-and does not despise modern society has the intellectual capacity of
-an <em>Epsilon</em>. <em>1984</em> is perhaps easily misread, but <em>Brave New World</em>
-is very clear with its message and is a bit like being smacked upside
-the head with a hammer.</p>
