George Orwell's masterwork, now in the Penguin Clothbound Classics
series with a cover designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith One of the
BBC's '100 Novels that Shaped the World' 'Who controls the past
controls the future: who controls the present controls the past'
Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministry of
Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs
of the Party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the totalitarian world
he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him
through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of Big
Brother, symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and
liberty, Smith begins a secret love affair with a fellow-worker
Julia, but soon discovers the true price of freedom is betrayal.
George Orwell's dystopian masterpiece, Nineteen Eighty-Four is
perhaps the most pervasively influential book of the twentieth
century.
