Description

1984 is the year in which it happens. The world is divided into three
great powers: Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia. Throughout Oceania 'The Party' rules by the agency of the four ministries whose power is absolute. In The Ministry of Truth, which deals in propaganda, Winston Smith's job is to edit the past. Over time, the impulse to escape the machine takes a hold of him. In writing the words 'DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER' his personal rebellion begins... This is his story but it might also be yours. In our increasingly surveillance-governed world the story has strong resonance and displays some shocking parallels with modern-day society.

Es un gran libro, con una trama increíble y una historia que logra atraparte. Sin embargo, siento que hacia el final se fue quedando un poco corto. El desenlace me pareció algo abrupto, como si simplemente hubiera que terminar la historia y ya. En mi opinión, le faltó un poco más de desarrollo y profundidad para cerrar todo lo que había construido a lo largo del libro.

The Novel itself is fantastic but this Audible adaptation elevates it to a whole other level. The performances are excellent, the music and sound effects create a great atmosphere and Joe White has done a great job adapting George Orwell's Novel. Overall this was a gripping listen that brings the Novel to life in a way that I think George Orwell would have been proud of.

Me dejó pa la caga, una revelación en todos los aspectos de una verdad
latente entre nosotros, me tuvo tenso y me costó leerlo, buena lectura y me inmersé realmente en el ambiente .
