About this product

Product Information

Written 70 years ago, 1984 was George Orwell's chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, his dystopian vision of a government that will do anything to control the narrative is timelier than ever... - Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read - " The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. " Winston Smith toes the Party line, rewriting history to satisfy the demands of the Ministry of Truth. With each lie he writes, Winston grows to hate the Party that seeks power for its own sake and persecutes those who dare to commit thoughtcrimes. But as he starts to think for himself, Winston can't escape the fact that Big Brother is always watching... A startling and haunting vision of the world, 1984 is so powerful that it is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the influence of this novel, its hold on the imaginations of multiple generations of readers, or the resiliency of its admonitions--a legacy that seems only to grow with the passage of time.

    Excellent communication concerning the delayed shipping due to Covid-19! Shipped same day! Any delays after that were out of their control, but I was reassured to wait and the patience paid off! Highly recommend! Fantastic experience!

    Never more true than now !

    Collect as many classic books in print form as possible because the publishers are rewriting the originals to conform to the Woke Cult sensitivities!

    Good condition should not include written notes in margins

    Fair condition would have been more accurate given notes written in the margins. The book itself is a classic "must read", which I had not read in many many years.

    1984 by George Orwell

    I recommend everyone in the family read it . Then they will better understand why people are they way they are today . And more importantly where we will end up . It is a easy to understand fact filled read. .

    Great Read, so true!

    Great price for a book I felt was an important read. George Orwell was way ahead of his time. His predictions came true!
