As bizarre as it may seem, this book is an anachronism without this being negative. Written at the time of the 70s, yet it is more relevant today than it was at the time, presumably. Urban monads portrayed in this news is a glaring truth for today's society. I remember most about the news of the escape of monads, which puts clearly address the issue of the place of man - individual - in societies that created today. An interesting reflection, while being an interesting entertainment. To read!
