There was a soviet childrens short novel 'Disobedience Holiday' by Sergei Mikhalkhov, while I was a child I read it like a normal kids book, but now it looks to me, an allegory against the ills of capitalism, in the same way that Animal Farm and Lord of the Flies have their deeper meanings. It is a good story, It should be more popular.

That one I'm not sure about, but "Neznaika on the Moon" sure was.

Really? Why capitalism in particular? The allegories of Animal Farm or Lord of the Flies are a lot more transparent, if this is one.
