Bluewolf0411: Not scifi
electrice : read in 2013, silly story
lcl999: One of the few really funny SF stories. Makes Pratchett seem a bit childish.

Verklaringen
: Not Sci-Fi
Bluewolf0411: Not science fiction.
electrice: read, science fiction, dystopia, bleak portraying of a possible future, big brother and all the jazz
Bretzky1 : This is not a science fiction story. Just because a story takes place in the future does not make it science fiction.
horacio.salazar: A classic. Big Brother is now almost real. :D
lcl999: A justly famous book. Yes it is also Science fiction. What about the TV sets that listen and watch?

Verklaringen
matthewmason: Both Carl Sagan and Issac Asimov argue that this work is the earliest rigorous SF. It's also pretty amazing; the protagonist goes to the moon to observe the Earth (though it actually ends up being a defense of the Ptolemaic system).
