""Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past."" 1984 revolves around the concept of omnipresent government surveillance, where Big Brother controls the society in the super-state, Oceania.Every aspect of life is closely monitored, every trace of privacy is rubbed off and the slightest hint of personal freedom or rebellion is ruthlessly quashed by the 'thought police'. Amidst these, a minor party official, Winston commits thought crimes', follows his instincts, and lands in the most dreadful Room 101 where resides every man's ultimate horror! The novel takes the readers to a world where "the object of torture is torture. The object of power is power".

Notă biografică

Eric Arthur Blair (1903-1950) was an English novelist, essay writer, critic and journalist born in Bengal, British India. Better known by his pen name, George Orwell, the writer's most famous works include the novels Animal Farm, 1945, and Nineteen Eighty-Four, 1949. His work boldly expresses his opposition to totalitarianism, and he is well-known for weaving social and political commentary into his texts. His influence is still widely seen today, for example, the adjective 'Orwellian' is commonly used to describe an authoritarian idea or social practise.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
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.

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 —
