Obviously it is not theory but as a piece of dystopian fiction what do y’all think of it. Is it as overtly propagandist as Orwell’s works?

Edit: I’d also love to hear opinions on Grapes of Wrath which I did not read in 8th grade. Really I’d love to hear about Steinback in general, my great grandfather knew him in highschool (or so my grandmother claims)

      nappropriately attracted

      That does seem to be a requirement for sci-fi written by a certain generation of authors.
