The year is 1984. War and revolution have created an unrecognisable world. Great Britain, now known as Airstrip One, is ruled by the Party, led by Big Brother. Mass surveillance is total and The Thought Police ensure no individual thinking is allowed.

Winston Smith works at The Ministry of Truth, carefully rewriting history. But Winston dreams of freedom, and of rebellion. It is here that he falls in love with Julia, and starts a secret, forbidden affair with her - but in this world nothing can be kept secret, and they are forced to face consequences more terrifying than either of them could have ever imagined.

Reviews for 1984

Orwell remains the most indispensable English writer of his period—Observer Matchlessly sharp and fresh... The clearest and most compelling English prose style this century—Sunday Times Many writers and journalists have tried to imitate his particular kind of clarity without possessing anything like his moral authority—The Times
