it's really good. Also it is an easy to read style in comparison to some older fiction.

It is v bleak and depressing, but it is a gripping read.

Great book but a shiit film. Really need to read the book before you watch the film, there's a nice snatch in the film.

Watch the cartoon film IMO

Animal Farm is better, but you really need to see the film of it. Got it off Dodgy Nigel in the market - it doesn't stay that true to the book but crikey do those girls take some serious girth off those donkeys.

Good book, you,ll be surprised about the talk of politics and the way of thinking is still very much around.
Report flatliner • January 20, 2010 12:11 PM GMT
Sorry, a very doubleplusgood book. ;)
Report Toop Toop • January 20, 2010 12:11 PM GMT
In a similar vein, I think Huxley's Brave New World is a better read . A more accurate prophecy of our probable future, if you like...

I was disappointed by Brave New World. The idea behind it is superb but I found his writing skills a bit mediocre
Report PETETHEPANDA • January 20, 2010 12:14 PM GMT
A very good book you could read in any era.
Report Roger The Butler • January 20, 2010 12:15 PM GMT
How could you read it in one of the eras before the book was written?
Report mittheimp • January 20, 2010 12:18 PM GMT
what era are we now in and how many have there been since it was written?
Report Roger The Butler • January 20, 2010 12:20 PM GMT
According to Girl Thing, it was the end of an era in July 2000. I am unsure how many more have passed since.
Report Rocket to the FACE • January 20, 2010 12:58 PM GMT
The book is great, the film is sh*te.
Report Ovalman. • January 20, 2010 2:09 PM GMT
The film is definitely better when you know what its about (and read the book), well worth watching for Suzanna Hamilton's snatch.

1984 - very good

I went to the theatre to watch it. Very good and enjoyed it, think id have found it more difficult reading a book

Best novel of the 20th century imo.
