The Shape of Things to Come

I always thought one of the most interesting authors of the early 20th century. His insights to the burgeoning British middle class were illuminating in Tono Bungay and Ann Veronica. I am afraid that this book does not quite match the brilliance of his earlier output. It is repetitive in language and thought with little insight to the danger for the corruption of the single world state.

Quite hard to read, didn't get past the first few chapters.

Quite a tedious third person rant by one of my favourite authors. Interesting insight into the thinking of his time.

The book which provided the inspiration for the Alexander Korda film.

good read prescient...
