Answer 5

It's about Individuality and how collectivism is a terrible way to live life. It starts with the main character who doesn't even know the singular tense "I" and only speaks in the plural tense. He lives in a communist society and by the end of the book he finds love, starts a new society and discovers "I" in an old book.

But seriously, it's only like 150 pages, are you really that lazy?
