FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
Winston Smith is a good worker. He supports the Party. He is good at his job rewriting history to Government specification. Big Brother watches him, but there is nothing to see.
Winston's struggle against the totalitarian world he inhabits is a closely guarded secret. It exists only in his mind until he begins a secret love affair with Julia, a fellow worker. Is this enough to push him to revolution? Or is it the beginning of his downfall?
A masterwork of dystopian fiction, Nineteen Eighty-Four is harrowingly prescient, and its impact has stretched around the globe.
With a new introduction by political editor and writer Ian Dunt, this brand new edition of a science fiction classic is a must-have for any collector.

Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell is highly praised for its compelling portrayal of a dystopian future governed by totalitarianism. Reviewers often highlight its powerful narrative and chilling vision of surveillance and control, making it a profound and thought-provoking read. Despite being written decades ago, its themes remain relevant, resonating with contemporary concerns about privacy and freedom.

About the Author
George Orwell (1903-1950)
Born in India, Eric Arthur Blair was better known by his penname, George Orwell. His work as a journalist, his non-fiction writing, and his time spent as a volunteer in the Spanish Civil War demonstrated his strong political beliefs, which carried into his fiction. Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four are widely cited as key works of political allegory, and his name has become a shorthand for political dystopias, while terms from his novels have permeated the common lexicon. He died in 1950 at the age of 46.Also by George Orwell

I spent a whole day heading to different stores to get a selected book which showed were available, only to find there were none.
I found BOOK HERO had this in stock, which I ordered before 3pm, only for this to arrive the following morning!
BOOK HERO will be my first option in future!
