"It was a bright cold day in April," goes the first line of 1984, "and the clocks were striking thirteen" George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four opening sentence. Another 35 years have elapsed since then, and Nineteen Eighty-Four remains the book we turn to when truth is mutilated, when language is distorted, when power is abused, when we want to know how bad things can get. Nothing but the truth: the legacy of George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four (The Guardian)
Hi Laura!

Why have you changed the format?
The ancient format was really nice!
What a pitty!

Hey, Manoli. How's things?
DeleteYes, after so many years I've decided it was high time it had a makeover, don't you think? I hope it doesn't put you off... you've been a keen follower all this time.
Besides, you know what they say ... you have to change with the times...
Keep in touch
Hi Laura!
ReplyDeleteI’ll be there reading your new blog, I’m really aware of the importance of continuing reading so your blog is perfect!
That’s why I’d like to encourage your students to read the fiction story of “A village after dark” published in “The New Yorker Magazine", It is a very good reading... I hope your students would enjoy as I did.
Thanks because of your support Laura.
