In George Orwell’s masterful dystopian novel, 1984, the world is ravaged by perpetual war, propaganda-driven news, omnipresent government surveillance, and totalitarianism. Orwell’s invented terms have become familiar even to people who have never read the book. Big Brother, doublethink, Newspeak, unperson, the thought police-even Orwell’s name-have become shorthand for menacing political concepts. In part, the perennial popularity of 1984 stems from its constant relevance to our time of its themes: invasion of privacy, ubiquitous surveillance, mass media and disinformation, cult of personality, and censorship. It is a towering work of horror that is crushingly immediate. This Warbler Classics edition includes a detailed biographical timeline.
