I’ve been obsessed with the similarities with that book for a few years now, and it reinforced almost every day. Another book with lost of creepy parallel's to today is "The Forgotten Man, A New History of the Great Depression" by Amity Schlaes and it's not even fiction.

I don’t think I’ve read that-but when I’m finished with “This Perfect Day”, I think I’ll read Jack Whyte’s series about post Roman Britain again-lots of love, humor, courage, etc...
