I read it because I loved the 1954 film last year. It's practically the same. I really like it. It's all the goodness of a murder mystery with a little socialist message.

We are studying this for English and I find it really interesting. The ending was very intriguing too. The more and more in-depth you go with this book the deeper the effect it had on you. Each of the characters symbolises a different sin and it explores numerous themes and ideas. It is a very thought-provoking, easy-to-read book.
