Description
Author George Orwell, Intro by Richard Bradford
With a new introduction by Professor Richard Bradford, this edition offers a fresh perspective on one of the great works of the 20th century.
Orwell's classic dystopian fiction warns us about our future and addresses issues that highlight many dangers faced by numerous nations today.
Winston Smith is a member of the “Party” and is under constant surveillance by Big Brother, the ruler of society. “Newspeak” aims to eliminate all political expression, “thoughtcrimes” are categorized as any thoughts of resistance or rebellion against any aspect of society, and the threat of being sent to “Room 101” serves as a warning to all. Orwell explores the mechanics of totalitarianism, revealing how control over mass media allows the state to manipulate all aspects of life, both past and future.
Fascinating titles and a very wide range of authors are part of Flame Tree Publishing's portfolio.
