Here’s a list of all the books mentioned in this episode, complete with an Amazon buy link and quotes from the episode.
1984
Buy on Amazon"When I made that one video on the book 1984, I really enjoyed it. That whole process was fun. I don't think I've ever thought as hard about a book as I had to when making that video."
Animal Farm
Buy on Amazon"I probably read 1984 five or ten times, I don't remember. I've read Animal Farm far more. But I don't think I had to analyze what I think about 1984."
Brave New World
Buy on Amazon"Like even with 1984, my analysis allowed me to compare it to Brave New World and discuss how it was politicized and used by the Republican Party over time. You could talk about so many interesting aspects if you think about it and write it down. In general, I've found the whole process highly rewarding."
