Nineteen Eighty-Four
U-topia is a made up word for no-place, based on Greek “ou” for “no”. The word was created by Sir Thomas More, an English writer from the Early Modern period, as the location in his work of the same name. It’s thought that, by choosing this name, he was slyly making the point that the “perfect” society he wrote about could never be real.
Dystopia is based on the prefix “dys,” which means “bad.” So they are absolutely very different.

Loved this book, the film, and it actually inspired me to go to law school. Too bad Atticus Finch ended up being racist...

100 Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez
His style is all description with little dialog. Lucid kind of dreamy story. Beautiful even in translation.
Ridiculous question. Has to be scoped to genre. 🙄
EY 4 you have a favorite book in every genre but the only title you were willing to name is Freakonomics???

Love love love the Goldfinch. The movie just couldn’t do it justice.
