Also read Blindness by jose saramago. kinda long, but u'll trip.
I agree, it's not really where we are headed but it is a wonderful book. It just shows how power can fuck you up. 1984 was a mandatory read in my freshman english class....which was actually 1989 (let me take you back now...WAAAAY back).
