Publisher Description
One of the most important novels of the 20th century, constantly relevant.
The most famous dystopia of literature, translated into more than 65 languages, sold in more than 30 million copies.
A sinister vision of a world where there is no personal freedom, lies replace the truth, and politically incorrect thought is the most severely punished crime. 1984, a thorn in the side of communism and other totalitarianisms, is a mirror in which fanatical human repairers can still see themselves today.
