In this timely and expertly written re-imagining of George Orwell’s classic 1984, Katherine Bradley gives a voice to the classic and tragic figure of Julia. The seemingly perfect example of what an Oceania woman should be, dutiful, meek, and subservient, Julia has a secret: she is part of an underground movement called The Sisterhood, tasked with finding members of The Brotherhood to overthrow Big Brother. This fast-paced and suspenseful novel explores Julia’s heart-breaking journey through the lens of Orwell’s original but offers up a wholly new and commendable perspective. At times almost terrifying, this is a must-read for anyone who begged for more about Julia’s stance against Big Brother.
