This review is from: 1984, Level 4, Penguin Readers (Penguin Readers: Level 4) (Paperback)
Just so you know, the Penguin Readers series was created for readers whose whose first language is not English (ESL students) and for young readers. Don't expect the full version. These are great books for ESL students and I have my students read them. Level 4 is approximately intermediate level.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Ruins the story's meaning,
This review is from: 1984 (Penguin Longman Reader L4) (Paperback)
A book about stopping oppression, tyranny, totalitarianism, and censorship gets dubbed into a simple censored version. An insult to the original book. People might say that this makes it more accessible to more people, but it doesn't. It doesn't because unless they read the full book they won't understand the real meaning, they'll understand some person at penguin readers opinion.
