Utopia (Penguin Classics)

Summary: The most profound and confusing book ever, but I loved it
Review: One must realize that the introduction at the beginning of the Penguin Classics edition of Utopia states that this book was originally written in Latin. Thus the writting and how sentences are some what annoying, confusing, or gramatically incorrect..do not point your finger at Sir Thomas More but instead at Paul Turner, the translator. Yet even with previous statement which I just stated, this book's depth and issues that very well exhibited were enough that I was entertained through out the incredibly short read. Though to disbelief, I enjoyed Book 2 better than Book 1. These books are actually are radical in difference (one is mostly made up of dialogue, and the other is one man explaining a 'setting to a plot'). The Utopian Republic gives an incite into different political structures that are now within the group of Socialism, Communism, and Marxism. I believe that if such a book is revered by many of the world's largest political figures as one of the best politically idealistic books ever written, what can be stopping you from saying it yourself. If you have an even and a couple hours off, sit down, read, and enjoy.
