I haven't read Sinclair's book but am familiar with other forms of fiction that were used for political decent while preventing the author from suffering political persecution (nursery rhymes, poetry, science fiction - my personal favorite is Paradise Lost by John Milton).

The point of some of the greatest works of fiction is to teach us (and help us teach our children) of various forms of corruption and tyrrany.
Niether are madman...and if you find something of value to you in the reading of fictional satirical novels...and/or ficitional satirical "documentaries" that is your personal choice.

As previously stated...while I do enjoy good satire and sometimes enoy fiction (though I have never read much fiction) I recognize them for what they are.
