Archived segments of Mike Malloy reading George Orwell's 1984
http://server4.whiterosesociety.org/content/malloy/1984 <--- This is a plain web directory until I make a proper page for it.

Hey, folks! I am cutting out the segments where Mike Malloy is reading George Orwell's "1984" for eventual concatenation into a single work, but I thought you might want to have access to the saved episodes to date!

Please kick this so people will see it.

3. I'd LOVE a complete Mike Malloy 1984 audio book...
Did Mike read the whole thing?

I'd bet a complete set would GREATLY increase the knowledge of the book!

Perhaps CDs could be made as a fund raiser? Would you need Malloy's permission for that? :shrug:

13. Suggestion:
If you do the CD, you could add Audio Tag info to make it easier on those with MP3 players...

BTW: Thanks.

6. Is he reading the whole thing or excerpts?
I'd also love to hear him read "Shooting an Elephant" and "Politics and the English Language"

And Ben, many thanks for this work.

9. Whole thing.
He's unsure how many nights that will take, though.

And you are welcome.

14. Heartfelt thanks for your efforts, Ben. . .
because placing your 1984 archive link in cyberspace will be a convenient oasis of wisdom to sustain us beleaguered Americans-who-care.

Suggestions to Mike and Kathy Malloy:
~have Kathy read novel's Julia's parts (any dialogue with Winston Smith)
~either after each of 3 major chapters or after the entire novel, Mike, Kathy, and a guest who has analyzed George Orwell's works could stand back from the novel in order to compare 1984 Oceania to 2006 Bushworld.

With my beat-up high-school copy, I'm following along with Mike. . .Orwell was sheer genius. . .heartfelt kudos to the Malloys for their decision to enlighten the public with the best in literary thinking.

35. I recorded KPOJ which is on three hour delay.
The main AAR stream crapped out on me Just before the 1984 segment.

32. I heard what he read Friday night. Very creepy.
Now I'm going to re-read the book again for the first time in 30 (?) years. If getting people to read the book was part of Mike's intention, well, he's succeeded brilliantly!
