A powerful story about loss of freedom and individuality, V for Vendetta takes place in a totalitarian England following a devastating war that changed the face of the planet. In a world without political freedom, personal freedom and precious little faith in anything comes a mysterious man in a white porcelain mask who fights political oppressors through terrorism and seemingly absurd acts. It's a gripping tale of the blurred lines between ideological good and evil.

Review of 'V for Vendetta' on 'Goodreads'

To be honest, I preferred the movie to the book, if only because it doesn't have so manby subplots. The visuals are fine but it was annoying that most male characters looks so much alike I couldn't tell them apart. In any case, it is an excellent reflection on tyranny and its effect on people, and it's entertaining as well.
