Ok, I am loving 1984. Although I'm finding the love story between the ages a little weird right now. The book is all about establishing suspicion, yet this love story happens out of the middle of no where. Odd, but otherwise good.
Along the same lines as The Children of Men movie, a genre of near future, realisitc disasters. Even though this book is supposedly set in 1984 (who really knows), it applies to today as well.
Enjoying it, enjoying...then forgetting it on my desk at work. What in the meantime? Must...have...something...to...read...
So, lo-and-behold, there is a book hold ready pick up - The Kindly Ones, by Jonathon Littell, full of sex, history, and war. Eight pages short of 1000, it's a hefty hardcover. Can I read it in conjunction with 1984...I think so!!!
