Publisher's Summary:

Winston Smith works for the Ministry of Truth in London, chief city of Airstrip One. Big Brother stares out from every poster and the Thought Police uncover each act of betrayal. When Winston finds love with Julia, he discovers that life does not have to be dull and deadening and awakens to new possibilities. Despite the police helicopters that hover and circle overhead, Winston and Julia begin to question the Party.

Yet Big Brother will not tolerate dissent - even in the mind. For those with original thoughts they invented Room 101....

Nineteen Eighty-Four is George Orwell's terrifying vision of a totalitarian future in which everything and everyone is slave to a tyrannical regime. Christopher Eccleston, Tim Pigott-Smith and Pippa Nixon star in this new drama, part of BBC Radio 4's The Real George Orwell season - a Radio 4 journey that explores the disjuncture between the man who was Eric Blair and the writer who was George Orwell.

IT IS DRAMATIZED

NOT

Any additional comments?

PLEASE YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT EXPLICIT THAT IT IS A DRAMATIZED BOOK =(

I loved it

Wonderful dramatization of a classic book. It really brought the story to life in ways I havent heard or seen before. Id highly recommend it to everyone.

Perfect for the current times

It's time to study up on stories of the past. It is our present and the first time we heard of "alternative facts".

Terrifying and Heartbreaking

I love Christopher's voice! he's supper talented.

what a chilling, well told tale full of vivid imagery.

Love the story

I know a lot of people don't like the dramatisation of it.

But the story was so good, for a first time reader, that it had me entranced to the end. "What is two plus two?" Haha love it.
