Concepts like freedom, anarchy, and dystopia, etc have been expounded in numerous non-fiction scholarly and popular works. I read some and understood most of them.

But, whenever it is about feeling them, I go back to fiction. Take dystopia as an example. What is a more complete dystopia than the Orwellian ones where there’s no light on the other end of a long tunnel of darkness and torment?

Similarly, V for Vendetta gives me a more acute emotional understanding of freedom, and anarchy than anything. That is why, I re-read V for Vendetta this time every year, intended to finish by 5th November.

Maybe there are fellow readers here who would like to discuss/appreciate/criticize V for Vendetta. Let our thoughts flourish!

Well… I was -4 years old when the last issue published. Definitely lucky.
