A bleak dystopian future plays out before us as Royal Television Society award-winning actor Sacha Dhawan narrates George Orwell’s profoundly impactful and thought-provoking classic.
Nineteen Eighty-Four is Orwell's chilling critique of totalitarianism and the dangers of unchecked power. Despite its bleak tone, the compelling narrative and enduring relevance of its themes make it a must-read for lovers of literature.
The story follows Winston Smith, who works for the Ministry of Truth, altering historical records. Discontented with the regime, Winston begins a forbidden relationship with Julia. As they secretly rebel against the Party, they are eventually caught and subjected to brutal re-education and ultimate betrayal.
One of the BBC's '100 novels that shaped our world', Nineteen Eighty-Four is given an electrifying and fresh approach by Sacha Dhawan, who ingeniously taps into this psychological conflict, exploring the dichotomy between the human desire for safety and the equally strong yearning for personal freedom.
