Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut | Read by PeachyTO

A short and sweet fantastical tale warning of equity and conformity, as dystopian concepts. In a world where everyone is rendered the same via handicaps for intelligence, beauty, and strength, once again we see autonomy sacrificed at the altar of engineered 'happiness' in utopian ideology.

Vonnegut proves to be another author from this era with the genius of foresight, alongside such midcentury greats as, Orwell, Huxley, and Bradbury.
