    (1165)

    George Orwell depicts a gray, totalitarian world dominated by Big Brother and its vast network of agents, including the Thought Police - a world in which news is manufactured according to the authorities' will and people live tepid lives by rote. Winston Smith, a hero with no heroic qualities, longs only for truth and decency. But living in a social system in which privacy does not exist and where those with unorthodox ideas are brainwashed or put to death, he knows there is no hope for him.

    Without a doubt, this audio book is better that good, it's DOUBLE PLUS GOOD.

    This disorienting and bleakly funny work is about a schizophrenic hero named Horselover Fat, the hidden mysteries of Gnostic Christianity, and reality as revealed through a pink laser. Valis is a theological detective story, in which God is both a missing person and the perpetrator of the ultimate crime.

    Story

    This is a very enjoyable listen containing the trifecta of audio book essentials: Well narrated, conviently timed segments and most importantly great material that grabs your attention. As a Lost fan, you have to read this book because so much of what's happening on the island is inspired by this novel. An eye-opening experience, without a doubt.
