In part two we pick up the story of 1984 as Winston Smith has just finished writing "Down With Big Brother!" in his new diary.  An act punishable by death.  There is a knock at the door.  Have the thought police caught up with him already...?!

This novel contains adult themes: younger listeners, please proceed with caution...
