I really enjoyed this book. Another one of my early October reads, back before midterms exploded onto the scene was Anthony Burgess’s The Wanting Seed.
This is a wonderful half-parody of a dystopian society, not only is it incredibly well written, but it is a gripping moving plot with forced homosexuality, the necessity of cannibalism, and a fight between brothers who share a lover.

This makes me want to go read more Burgess, so that will have to get added to the to do list.
