1984 (NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR) by George Orwell Signet #D1640 1960 Science Fiction Very Good Condition with light edge wear. Clean inside with no mark/name written on first page. Among the seminal texts of the 20th century, Nineteen Eighty-Four is a rare work that gr...ows more haunting as its futuristic purgatory becomes more real. Published in 1949, the book offers political satirist George Orwell's nightmarish vision of a totalitarian, bureaucratic world and one poor stiff's attempt to find individuality. The brilliance of the novel is Orwell's prescience of modern life--the ubiquity of television, the distortion of the language--and his ability to construct such a thorough version of hell. Required reading for students since it was published, it ranks among the most terrifying novels ever written.
I will be putting on more collectiblepaperbacks, so keep watching.
