I read 1984 at school then read it again a few years ago. I agree that considering it was written in 1948 it was very forward thinking, and some of it quite true. I thought most of it ok but the end was an anti-climax.
I'm being thick now but who is Aeneid - I know Easops fables!
I quite fancy some of the Greek mythological stories but think they could be a bit heavy!
