Very quick read. I have some mixed feelings about this book. It was enjoyable, it's a thought provoking narrative, it's an interesting prediction about the future. But you could really tell it was written in the 1950's. There is an almost disregard for women, just seeing them in the future as useless housewives who hate children. You can read between the lines that the author was deeply affected by WWII. There is an almost paranoia about the effect of televisions and radios. So while it's an interesting social commentary about the 1950's and the potential effects, it is almost too abrupt in the conclusions it makes.
