The Orwell Huxley Anthology -...

George Orwell, Aldous Huxley

1984 by George Orwell and Brave New World by Aldous Huxley are two of the most famous and influential dystopian novels ever written. Both books depict a future world in which individual freedom and privacy are subordinated to the demands of a totalitarian state, and citizens are manipulated and controlled through technology, propaganda, and social conditioning.

1984 is set in a grim, authoritarian society in which all citizens are monitored and controlled by the ruling Party. The novel's protagonist, Winston Smith, begins to question the oppressive regime and becomes involved in a dangerous and ultimately doomed rebellion. Orwell's writing in 1984 is characterized by its stark realism and its unflinching depiction of the horrors of totalitarianism. The novel remains a powerful warning about the dangers of unchecked government power and the importance of individual freedom.

Brave New World, on the other hand, is set in a more technologically advanced and ostensibly utopian society, in which citizens are conditioned from birth to be content with their predetermined place in the social hierarchy. The novel's protagonist, Bernard Marx, rebels against the conformity and emptiness of his society, but ultimately finds himself unable to escape its grip. Huxley's writing in Brave New World is characterized by its irony and satire, as well as its incisive critique of the impact of technology on human nature.
. The two novels have often been compared and contrasted, and both are considered to be among the most important works of literature of the 20th century.

Here is the ultimate Audiobook celebration of this great enduring artist narrated by Emmy-nominated actor and author Geoffrey Giuliano.

John Davys Beresford

John Davys Beresford was born on 17th March 1873.  His life was blighted by infantile paralysis which left him partially disabled. 
After an education at Oundle school he trained to be an architect.  However, he quickly decided that his life was to be centred on a literary career.  His first offerings were in drama and as a journalist. 
As well as being a book reviewer for the Manchester Guardian he contributed to New Statesman, The Spectator, Westminster Gazette, and the Theosophist magazine The Aryan Path.   
His spiritual journey in early adulthood had claimed him as an agnostic, in defiance of his clergyman father.  This view he later abandoned in preference to describing himself as a Theosophist and a pacifist. 
As well as many novels, many themed with spiritual and philosophical elements.  Beresford was also a gifted short story writer particularly across the science-fiction, horror and ghost genres.
