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)

    Ray Bradbury is the only person to ever misunderstand his own art entirely. If you read it as Bradbury intended it’s a 200 page facebook post about how liberals can’t change their TV channel due to woke, but death of the autor him and it’s a good piece of dystopian fiction
