RonjaWhat a change of perspective! The story of "1984" told by Julia and "Lolita" told by the now grown-up Dolores Haze instead of the paedophile Humbert Humbert.- "Julia: A Novel" by Sandra Newman (org. in English, translated into Dutch, German...) - "Bye Bye Lolita" by Lea Ruckpaul (German only) Trigger warning: "Julia" is like "1984" very dystopian. "Bye bye Lolita" contains details of sexual abuse. <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/lesekreis" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@lesekreis</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/boeken" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@boeken</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@bookstodon</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/JuliaANovel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JuliaANovel</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/SandraNewman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SandraNewman</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/ByeByeLolita" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ByeByeLolita</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/LeaRuckpaul" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LeaRuckpaul</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#books</a>

IƧΛΛCBam! What a slap in my face, as a heterosexual cis-man. Orwell rolls in his grave, indeed. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/nineteeneightyfour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nineteeneightyfour</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Julia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Julia</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SandraNewman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SandraNewman</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/1984GeorgeOrwell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#1984GeorgeOrwell</a>

DoomsdaysCWSo, years ago, I had toyed around with attempting to write Julia's story. My version was a bit far-fetched and involved elements of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DavidBowie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DavidBowie</a>'s <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DiamondDogs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DiamondDogs</a> (Bowie's retelling of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NineteenEightyFour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NineteenEightyFour</a>). Anyhow, I ended up working on other projects, but I'm glad to see someone wrote Julia's story. Curious to see how much it matches up with what I gleaned from fixating on <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Orwell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Orwell</a>'s version, as well as various retellings...<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bookstodon</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AutumnReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AutumnReading</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DystopianNovels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DystopianNovels</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GeorgeOrwell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GeorgeOrwell</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SandraNewman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SandraNewman</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/JuliaANovel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JuliaANovel</a>

John TurianoHas anyone read this one? I loved Orwell's classic and will have to bump this up on my tbr list.“Newman hasn’t proved herself a worthy successor to Orwell; she’s outclassed him, both in knowledge of human nature and in character development. Julia should be the new required text on those high-school curricula, a stunning look into what happens when a person of strength faces the worst in humanity, as well as a perfect specimen of derivative art that, in standing on another’s shoulders, can reach a higher plane.” — Los Angeles Times<a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bookreview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookreview</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bookreviewer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookreviewer</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bookrecommendation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookrecommendation</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bookrecommendations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookrecommendations</a> #1984 <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/1984Julia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#1984Julia</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SandraNewman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SandraNewman</a>
