 What. Did. I. Just. Read?

Strangely disturbing, strangely fascinating, a mix of intentional and unintentional commentary on society and conformity and life purpose. I really enjoyed a few points in this book, but found more it uncomfortable than I found it enjoyable. Recommended if you enjoy poking into random worldviews to see how they fit together.
