R_StieltjesOh wat een goed boek. En verrassend en distopisch tot onder je huid. Vooral omdat de realiteit zo nabij is. Een mentale shock. #julia #sandranewman #1984 #orwell
Just in, eager to read…
1984 through the eyes of Julia.

Steve MitchellMoving on to my next book, and it’s a version of 1984 from Julia’s point of view #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #CurrentlyReading #Bibliophile #Bookworm #BookLovers #Julia #1984 #SandraNewman
RonjaWhat a change of perspective! The story of "1984" told by Julia and "Lolita" told by the now grown-up Dolores Haze instead of the paedophile Humbert Humbert.
- "Julia: A Novel" by Sandra Newman (org. in English, translated into Dutch, German...)
- "Bye Bye Lolita" by Lea Ruckpaul (German only)
Trigger warning: "Julia" is like "1984" very dystopian. "Bye bye Lolita" contains details of sexual abuse.

„1984“ von George Orwell jetzt als Hörspiel – spannend und packend! 🎧🔊 Hoffentlich gibt es bald auch das feministische Pendant als Hörspiel: „Julia“ von Sandra Newman.

Podcast: Hörspiel nach George Orwell – 1984 (1/4)
• Dystopie • Winston Smith lebt in einem totalitären Überwachungsstaat. Von allen Wänden starrt das Bild des Parteiführers „Großer Bruder“, selbst in der eigenen Wohnung steht er unter Beobachtung. Orwells dystopischer Klassiker als Hörspiel.
I am reading the book "Julia" by Sandra Newman
"Julia is a bold feminist retelling of Nineteen Eighty-Four that goes beyond Winston Smith's story to finally reveal what life in Oceania was like for women."

DoomsdaysCWSo, years ago, I had toyed around with attempting to write Julia's story. My version was a bit far-fetched and involved elements of #DavidBowie's #DiamondDogs (Bowie's retelling of #NineteenEightyFour). Anyhow, I ended up working on other projects, but I'm glad to see someone wrote Julia's story. Curious to see how much it matches up with what I gleaned from fixating on #Orwell's version, as well as various retellings...

John Turiano@simoncampbell The original is a classic. I still need to read this one.
