Il pianeta delle scimmie

The depiction of apes blending intelligence with brutality made me wonder whether this was meant to mirror human society or serve a different purpose in the story.

It raises questions about what might happen if humanity's place at the top was challenged. I’m curious how others interpreted this shift in power dynamics.

The world-building felt both familiar and unsettling. I wonder if Boulle based it on any specific fears or historical events.
