George Orwell, Animal Farm
A good month for reading. Animal Farm is always a treat. I was really struck by the openness of the "dumb" animals to the ideals of Animalism despite evidence to the contrary. Illustrates that politics requires faith, even misplaced faith.
Also, found this sweet little rendition of "Beasts of England" which gives it a bit more contemporaneousness for today's youth.
1973 - when I started asking questions, like, "Why are we all dressed so funny?"
