1984 tells the story of a government official, Winston Smith, who works daily to erase and alter history for the Ministry of Truth. Despite, or perhaps because of, this work for the regime, inside, he harbors a great disdain for the system. 1984 depicts his struggle for truth, freedom and sanity, against the odds. Strongly influenced by the totalitarian systems Orwell saw springing up around the world in the 1930s and 40s, 1984 is essential reading for anyone interested in upholding freedom of thought and action. Beyond the insights into various forms of oppression and control, the book is simply a grippingly exciting novel. Our edition features a 28-page section on George Orwell's tumultuous life and times, including his own words on his motivations for writing in the form of the essay Why I write. The book comes in 170x240mm format with hard cover in red cloth, serigraphic, foil and debossed details, designed by Petri Salmela in Helsinki.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

"It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen."The year is 1984 and war and revolution have left the world unrecognisable. Great Britain, now known as Airstrip One, is ruled by the Party, led by Big Brother. Mass surveillance is everything and The Thought Police are employed to ensure that no individual thinking is allowed.

Winston Smith works at The Ministry of Truth, carefully rewriting history, but he dreams of freedom and of rebellion. It is here that he meets and falls in love with Julia. They start a secret, forbidden affair - but nothing can be kept secret, and they are forced to face consequences more terrifying than either of them could have ever imagined.

A DYSTOPIAN MASTERPIECE, NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR IS THE POWERFUL AND PROPHETIC NOVEL THAT DEFINED THE 20TH CENTURY.

Recenzii

One of the BBC's 100 Novels that Shaped the World “Orwell saw, to his credit, that the act of falsifying reality is only secondarily a way of changing perceptions. It is, above all, a way of asserting power.”—The New Yorker1984 is a profound, terrifying, and wholly fascinating book. It is a fantasy of the political future, and like any such fantasy, serves its author as a magnifying device for an examination of the present.”—Lionel Trilling —
