      About this Book

      London, in the year 1984: The world is divided into three constantly warring superstates – Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia. In Oceania, of which Britain is a part, the Party’s power is absolute. Every action, word, gesture and thought is monitored under the watchful eye of Big Brother and the Thought Police. In the ›Ministry of Truth‹, the Party’s Propaganda Department, Winston Smith’s job as a propaganda writer is to edit and rewrite history, to meet the needs of the authoritarian government. With every lie he writes, Winston grows to hate the Party that seeks power for its own sake and persecutes those who dare to commit thoughtcrimes. As Winston falls in love with fellow worker Julia, they begin to question the very system they work for, and expose themselfes to immense danger. Soon they are forced to face consequences more terrifying than either of them could ever have imagined ...

      Since its first publication in 1949, George Orwell’s haunting prophecy has been the definitive dystopian novel and one of the most influential works of the 20th century.

      George Orwell (1903-50) was born in Bengal and educated in Eton. After serving in the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, he returned to Europe to make a living writing novels and essays. He was essentially a political writer, a man of intense emotion and a desire for justice. As an opponent of totalitarianism, he wrote essays, political satires such as ›Animal Farm‹ and his incomparable clairvoyant dystopia ›1984‹.
