The Butterfly Revolution

Posted by Walter on June 11, 2002 at 07:44:32:

I just finished reading a thin paperback called THE BUTTERFLY REVOLUTION. If you've never read it, I suggest you try to find it online.
It's about some teenagers who start a Revolution at a summer camp.
The similarities to the COG are freaky.
This book shows how a small 'revolution' can get out of hand. It shows how a seemingly harmless movement can become dangerous. It gives insight into WHY normal individuals become involved in odd movements.
I highly recommend this book. It really helped explain to me as to WHY people can get mixed up in Orwellian thinking and movements.
Try looking on Advanced Book Exchange or BOOKFINDER in your search engine.
The book was originally written in 1961 by WILLIAM BUTLER, and is entitled THE BUTTERFLY REVOLUTION.
