This comment concerns 1984 as narrated Richard Brown. It is not a review of the book.

Mr. Brown has such a thick British accent it's very difficult to understand him at times. If you turn it up too loud in an attempt to hear him through his accent, you'll hurt your ears when he hits the hard s's and t's. If you have trouble with British accents, I do not recommend this version.

the product looked a little more worn than I would have liked, but it was a great value for the price on this hard-to-find item. Service from the vendor and prompt and as promised.

My two favorite Orwell stories in one cool box-set. Narriation is excellent in both. I Love my copy, and intend to keep it for life. It is filed along side of " Animals " by Pink Floyd, and " Diamond Dogs " by David Bowie.
