There are some books that make an impression and are never totally forgotten and I really need to get around to reading some of them again. Hard to believe that 1984 was published 75 years ago this year and we IMO are getting extremely close to some if not most of it's content all be it some years later than the book suggestedOddly enough @UNG
my new copy arrived yesterday!
When I was at school we had very progressive English teachers, so Arthur Miller, J D Salinger, George Orwell and Albert Camus were the prescribed reading, amongst others>
I remember enjoying Animal Farm and 1984, and recently decided to re-read both. 1984 brought back many memories but I had forgotten SO much, so it was almost a revelation to read it again. As I said, Animal Farm arrived yesterday and will be devoured very soon.
