Really an enjoyable read, I never felt the urge to drop the book. Definitely recommend it.
The third part of the book made me think of the Rape of the Sabines and the parts before it could be compared to Aeneas' journey, but what other references and themes did I miss?

I've read the book and thought it was brilliant. I've never seen the film however. I've heard it's quite the horror show. My experience reading the book was rather one of comfiness. Should I risk spoiling the experience of reading this marvelous book by watching the film?

Watched the film as a child, would still happily watch it as an adult having read the book in my early 20s. Plague Dogs is cool as well.

Societal organization. Dictators, etc.

fantastic film, a piece of art for sure

Agreed, OP. Wish it was discussed more on /lit/. It's a well researched book full of whimsical and endearing details (i.e. the language of rabbits/the language of commonfolk animals, the fact that caged rabbits struggle to be assimilated into the new warren, etc).

The ending is a rare thing: endearing yet gently heartbreaking.

Watch it. It is darker than the novel but it shouldn't be missed, anon.

The Plague Dogs is a film that'll fuck you up more than Watership Down ever could.

You should read the book. You will read through rage and tears...

Both GREAT books. Enjoyed WD more than TPD desu.

Any of you read Shardik? Reasonably good fantasy.

Adams is a fav of mine

Plague Dogs is most likely the most harrowing book I've ever read. Jesus fuck, the fucking ocean.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................Once I saw that Adams was leading us to THE FUCKING OCEAN, I started to yell at the book. Loudly and for a prolonged period of time. Took me one helluva long time to continue reading...and he fucking went there. I'm enraged and broken all over again right now........
