Julia

Set in the oppressive environment of Oceania's Airstrip One in 1984, this audiobook follows Julia Worthing, a mechanic in the Ministry of Truth, who appears to be a compliant citizen under the Party's rule. Despite her outward loyalty to the regime and her role as a member of the Junior Anti-Sex League, Julia secretly navigates a life of rebellion and desire. Her world turns upside down when she encounters Winston Smith, sparking a compelling connection that challenges her ability to survive in a society dominated by surveillance and strict control. Sandra Newman's companion novel, seventy-five years after Orwell's original, offers a fresh, feminist perspective on the classic tale.
