It helps, but the main thing is that they're a competent, trained theatrical actor. Amateurs and screen actors don't make for good audiobooks. They also need to be smart enough to understand what they're reading.

Agreed. I don't know how people get through some of the narrations of some of the others out there. The guy that reads Gulag Archipelago is one of my favorites.

Don’t forget about Will Lyman from frontline

Absolutely true 😊

Wowww. I never read this book before. I had seen the animated one several times when I was a boy. I am lying here in bed recovering from painful chest infection which has me coughing so much I couldn’t settle. I came across this and have just had the most peaceful three hours I’ve had in few days! A wonderful experience accompanied by a wonderful narrator reading this fabulous story.

Thank you 🙏

Ur a legend idk why they can’t just put it in the video

Thank you. Luv u

@NicoleH I love how he tries to stay as close to the books description of the tune

Narrator rocks.

Your comment is 7 months old, but is still correct. Love it when he said “Four legs good, two legs bad” in the sheep voice lol

My favorite was the sheep, "four legs good,two legs baaaad"

😊 10 p0lp at my old​@@truthcrackers

it makes me wanna jump off a cliff

​@@Chloe-fs4bpsomeone is strapping you down and making you listen to this? Oh no! Dial 911 with your phone instead of commenting on UKposts is my suggestion!

@@cliftonharmon2403 yes my english class , but on the other hand his way of speaking is rlly charming

Chloe, better you jump than be pushed. Jump! Instead of threatening to. It's like you don't have the guts😂

@@McMitch roflmao nice one totaly agree with you she just chicken all talk no action begging for attention.

There was a bit of backlash but it was only certain groups, however 3 major communist countries outright banned it - Russia, China & Cuba.

Yes because the blatant references to communism obviously makes it to “all” world leaders

Could not have said it better myself.

I listened with my headphones so my dogs would hear and get any ideas

Animal Farm is a metaphor for the Soviet Union and communism. And its eventual degradation into the exploitation of the people by the so called "elite"...your reference to "world leaders" is an obvious sign of your indoctrination by current Marxist teaching standards.

He had ties with elites therefore knew how the world really works

​@@16HodgesI'm speculating he was a freemason with inside knowledge

No. He started out as a Colonial policeman in Asia. He saw imperialism and prejudice first hand , as well as authoritatianism.

Yes they did. It is how human behaves. It is the Emmanuel Goldstein and the two minutes of hate. Where you are basically forced to publicly hate someone and it is hard to not get swept in from time to time. We have an example of this in real life. He is called Donald Trump. The hate and what people blame him for is just insane. Sure. He isn't always the best, but there are so many lies about him it is just pure and blind hatred with any rationality.

Like republicans blaming China for everything

As a free thinker I believe they were right, Snowball did it all!

@@dienvidbriedis1184 Well. That should kind of go against the fact they had him killed and lied to everyone about it.

Dropped out. Ten years later and I’m still too lazy to read

Lucky bastard

Forced to back then, doubling back for nostalgia

I just don’t understand as much as for reading it by myself and I am also too lazy to do my homework. We get homework every day on this book lol.

School is for animals

🙏🏾🙏🏾👼🏾

That's great for you!

I've no idea where you come from, but have you ever heard of Sir Patrick Moore, eccentric English astronomer? He was born in 1921, served in the RAF through 6 years of war,and was the sole presenter of the longest running programme in the world. The Sky at Night. He had a sickly childhood, was mostly home schooled or self-taught, drew maps of the moon for the lunar landers, and only missed 1 episode in nearly 60 years and sadly died after his last broadcast.😢

- cried the SHEEP

TWWWWOOOO LEGGGGSSSS BETTTTTEEEERRRRRR

I knew I couldn’t possibly be the only one to take the leap between the two! Good to see you, Comrade. Heh. Comrade. Get it? You get it.

As did i

Totally agree. Read it in my teenage years.

Indeed, 1984 as well!

Yes dude, the way he made him sound like such a shmuck 😅 I absolutely despised him all through it

Still breaks my heart when they come for Boxer.

I don't know this story, nor have I reached that part yet. Wish I'd not seen the comment about Boxer

Agreed. The narrator has a SIGNATURE voice for a story like this. The tone has CLASSIC LITERATURE 'written' all over it.

depressingly, boringly, stupid

Very apropos in 2023.

You mean authoritarian-state-corporatism. Capitalism is the full decentralization of the power of trade to each individual person. That means we each have the right to choose to buy and sell as we see fit, including who we will work for or who we will hire. All other economic systems removes some of those freedoms from us and gives those choices to another who can tell us what we must/musn't buy or where we will work or who we will hire.

@@MrJuliopolis That's the free market. It is not exclusive to capitalism. For example, market socialism is when companies and producers are owned by the workers, but still exist in a free market. What defines capital is... well, capital. Capital is the ownership of monetary property, by which ownership, rather than actual labor, money is produced. In actuality, capitalism often works *against* the free market by the creation and enforcement of monopolies and the prioritization of short-term profit over long-term economic growth. Corporatism is sometimes used as a euphemism for capitalism, but it is much the same thing- whether it is state corporatism or private corporatism. This is largely because capitalism is defined by competition rather than cooperation. The only form of cooperation in a capitalist structure is analogous to an alliance between parties that eventually intend to conquer the other.

@@dootie8285 I see it simply as a study of human nature. The desire for power, etc..

@@dootie8285just figure out who likes to cancel, who changes the meaning of words, who makes up new words, who forces the acceptance of these words, who makes words unspeakable?

i hated it literally want to shoot myself

the 'splendid narration' had me slitting my wirsts

​@@Chloe-fs4bp🤔

@@Chloe-fs4bp You might want to seek help for that!

he nail at giving me a 13th reason

It’s AN English accent, not THE English accent

Thought it was required . That's where I read it !

Good luck Friend

Orwell's books should never go out of print!

Yes, but I want to be clear. I was referring to only two very specific audiobook versions narrated by Timothy West that are not being made anymore. There are still many other audiobook versions narrated by a number other people still available as well as many actual paper print editions, both hardcover and paperback. 😋 @@KarenLaMontagne-wv1ch

Timothy West was a great British character actor.

Neither of these books are out of print. They are extremely popular books. You can find them in any book store and even thrift stores.

@@shelbyjames1894 Some people still misunderstand my original comment. I was referring to very specific audiobook versions narrated by actor "Timothy West" being out of print. Many paper print versions as well as many audiobook versions narrated by others are still being made. 😉

Same things in my head while I was close to end of novel. I felt sorry for not appering of snowball if happened so the fate of animals would be more different

Snowball is a reference to Leon Trotsky, a contemporary of Stalin and Lenin. Trotsky failed to guide the Bolshevik/Communist forces the way he liked and fled to France I believe, living in exile until Russian secret service slaughtered him. (Napolean being a comparison to Stalin)

Snowball caught an 🪓 to the head in Mexico City.

Just like Trotsky. Except Trotsky was not only exiled, but also murdered on Stalin’s orders

Their government The government is over there They're working for the government

This book was released in 1945. So if people said that in the 60s they are literally referencing this book.

Except Swedish workers vs tesla, look it up December 2023

Which one? Be specific

@@CharlotteMacrickens when he's being driven away. He looks out the window of the trailer and if he was younger he would have smashed the car to "matchsticks" and he was never seen again 😢

@@laurenkimsey1887The thing is, he got what he deserved in the end. If you are not selfish to a degree, you will just find yourself exploited and used. If you blindly trust the government, they will also abused and exploit you. The government will never have your back unless it benefits them and Boxer did not head the warnings he got. If you are told to not think for yourself, you should never trust anything those people tell you ever again. Those who do not want you to think are not your friends. Boxer didn't, and he was turned into glue.

This isn't Jonathan Cecil. It's Timothy West.

There is definitely something different about classic books. The old timey language is like that lovely smell of an old classic car where it just has something that sticks with you forever

hated it caused my death

I like audiobooks because you can listen to them while playing the piano!

The speaker's Timothy West.

@@annabanana7659 Thank you Anna ❤

I totally agree! The reader did a great job!

I know he is amazing, I cannot get his voice out of my head, when I read things, I hear it in his voice. I must know all traces of this mans voice.

What a gift! Excellent reader.

This is not a horror story! 🙄

Bon chance mademoiselle. Your English is no doubt better than my French 😂
