I love reading Sci-Fi classics, they're so different from modern days Sci-Fi. In this book you find both: traces of the past time of the 1950s (Retro Future, anyone?) and highly topical problems of our society. Interesting combination.

It's even more scarier if you think of the Corona virus, that's spreading right now.

And even though I did not like the ending/the problem solving at the end, this book is still a pick.
