Episode: 25 – [Review] 1984 - Paperback Friends

What this episode covers

What do we say about this one? Orwell is freaking cracked! If Homage to Catalonia is anywhere near as good as his other stuff; it has to be read – pronto!As for 1984, what can I say honestly? It lives up to expectations. Dark, uncompromising and to the point (manifest parts excluded) this is simply amazing work.Orwell is not for everyone, and if you had to read this for school it might lessen how you feel about it today. Although, if you like a piece of fiction with some meaning to it; look no further than 1984.Type: Review | Book: 1984 | Writer: George Orwell
