Have you ever lied about reading a book? Well, if so, you’re hardly alone. According to The Guardian, 65% of people polled in a survey admitted to having made such a lie. And what books did they claim to have read? George Orwell’s 1984 ranked #1. Then the order went something like this: Tolstoy’s War and Peace, James Joyce’s Ulysses, and the Bible.
I was reminded today that 1984 was first published 60 years ago. You can get the 60th anniversary edition here, or you can always download a free, high quality audio book from Archive.org. And, for more free audio books, visit our large collection.
