Amusing Ourselves to Death by Stuart McMillen (May 2009)

Aldous Huxley (Author: “Brave New World”) vs. George Orwell (Author: Nineteen Eighty-Four)

posted this before, but this is laid out really nice for tumblr.

What they never imagined is that both would happen simultaneously…

This. This is why I want my students to read BOTH.

wow… this is just.. I never realized ._.

I was fortunate enough to read them in two consecutive semesters

I only wish that everyone had so that we could talk about the similarities and differences.
