Book reviews of Gregory Maguire’s “Mirror Mirror” and George Orwell’s “1984″ (53/365)

by Winston on Sep.08, 2010, under George Orwell

“Mirror Mirror”: “Maguire restores the edge to an oft-told tale and imbues it with a strange, unsettling beauty.” – Publishers Weekly (starred review) “1984″: “Today, half a century after it was written, Orwell’s prophetic, haunting tale of conformity and identity strikes a disturbing chord. As we follow Winston Smith through his rebellion, imprisonment, torture, and reeducation, we witness firsthand the worst crime we can inflict upon ourselves and others: the destruction of the truths and freedoms that make us who we are.” – back cover

Bishop Williamson on Orwells 1984 and 911, part 2

by Winston on Sep.04, 2010, under 1984, the George Orwell Book

Catholic bishop Richard Williamson gave a profound conference in London, England, the weekend 21-23 September 2007 on George Orwells book 1984. The following is his extraordinary sermon the last day. The sermon is perhaps a bit long for being a sermon, but on this topic who can blame him? In this day of age when the global police state is upon us, it is more important than ever that clergy dare to speak out and warn their flock from this nightmarish abyss. Unfortunatly a rare thing from catholic bishops nowadays. Msgr Williamson is of English origin but is presently Rector at Seminario Nuestra Senora Corredentora in Argentine.

Greatest Era in Human History – George Orwell vs. Michio Kaku.mp4

by Winston on Aug.18, 2010, under George Orwell

This is a video response due to the fact of people nip picking at subjects.what i mean by this i tell bob to read book A and he just reads 1 paragraph of the books and makes comments as if he read the whole book.ad ho mien is another issue not attacking the subject but the person instead.this video does a great job at explaining things in another blunt level with transparency.when it comes to opinions yeah ok they r only good when some one has written something in the romantic level,like a story,song,poetry etc…but language shouldn’t b subjective to interpretation.like we are doing right now is not needed i hope this video speaks for it self upon that video that i’m responding to.
