Nineteen Eighty-Four

A Novel

Beschreibung

The Thought Police, Doublethink, Newspeak, Big Brother â '1984' itself: these terms have moved from the world of fiction into our everyday lives. They are central to our thinking about freedom and its suppression; yet they were created by George Orwell in 1949 as he conjured his dystopian vision of a world where totalitarian power is absolute.
