George Orwell 1984 Book

Winston Smith lives in a society where the Party watches its citizens and controls what they are allowed to know, say and remember. His desire for truth and personal freedom draws him into a dangerous struggle against that system. George Orwell's disturbing dystopian novel rewards mature readers with a powerful exploration of surveillance, propaganda and power, offering much to question about language, authority and the shaping of reality.
