I felt there was a strong allegory to entrepreneurship in WD. I read it as the story of a founding team: one visionary who saw things differently, the other who was able to lead. They escape from their rigid community, and build a specialized team. Very deep stuff in there, so well told. I finally read this as an adult recently, and it is amazing. I'd love more recommendations for books like it (with non-humans as protagonists).
