À propos de cet audio

Bringing the Best of George Orwell's 1984 & Animal Farm together.

Nineteen Eighty-Four:

A Novel, often published as 1984, is a dystopian novel. A startling and haunting novel, 1984 creates an imaginary world that is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the novel's hold on the imaginations of whole generations, or the power of its admonitions - a power that seems to grow, not lessen, with the passage of time.

George Orwell's timeless and timely allegorical novel - a scathing satire on a downtrodden society's blind march towards totalitarianism. The book tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer, hoping to create a society where the animals can be equal, free, and happy. Ultimately, however, the rebellion is betrayed, and the farm ends up in a state as bad as it was before, under the dictatorship of a pig named Napoleon. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell's masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.

The stories are classics for a reason. Orwell's work is masterfully engaging, Benjamin May does a good job bringing life to the characters, and the sound editor like Farmer Jones is clearly off drunk somewhere neglecting his work.
Sloppy re-cuts of the audio means that parts skip back and repeat themselves like a faulty record, sometimes Benjamin's flubbed lines are left in (coccidiosis is a hard word, I understand he needed to start over, I just don't know why that was left in the final cut).
Another issue is the chaptering system that gives no indication of where the first book ends and the other begins.

Honestly avoid this version and seek out another that put actual care into their work.

Editing. Its not just for totalitarian regimes.
