pickI really liked the black and white drawings of this graphic novel, it definitely helped to bring across the mood of the novel. I am not sure if I will read the original because the dystopy seems rather depressing. I am glad I choose to check out the graphic novels first.
What a scary thought of the history being revised every now and then. Things that have been your past today, won‘t be tomorrow‘s past.
pickRevisiting classics in graphic novel form is a great to brush up on the story and themes without dedicating the time it takes to read the whole book. While Im not a huge fan of the style of the illustrations, the book does do an amazing job of capturing the bleak, gritty dystopia setting. Remains a warning for our time.
Thanks to @Megabooks for the idea to read this prior to reading Julia, the retelling of 1984, a pick for #litsyToB24.
pickDefinitely recommend brushing up on 1984 with this graphic adaptation ahead of reading the #LitsyToB24 pick Julia. While not strictly necessary, the stories dovetail enough that it was helpful. The art in this adaptation is great, and I could read it in a day!
Also, got this yesterday 😃
