I started reading it in French on Amazon preview but decided that was too much like hard work, so I got an English edition. I'm told it's astonishingly prescient about the sort of things we've been seeing in 2020 - notably, those in charge not knowing what to do but not letting that stop them from taking a highly authoritarian line.
