      I read the book because I read books, not because it was assigned reading. The creative writing assignment was something about creating a plot outline around an existing book or film. So I picked both and wrote a story about what could simultaneously unite the world under one banner and push us towards a militaristic society. It was about 25 years ago so honestly I cant remember much.
