George Orwell - 1984 Unabridged

"None can deny its power, its hold on the imaginations of whole generations, nor the power of its admonitions, a power that seems to grow rather than lessen with the passage of time." --Walter Cronkite

The year 1984 has come and gone, yet George Orwell's prophetic nightmare vision in 1949 of the world we were becoming is timelier than ever. 1984 is still the great modern classic of "Negative Utopia"---a startlingly original and powerful novel that creates an imaginary world.

Orwell depicts a gray world dominated by Big Brother and his vast network of agents suffocating freedom in a totalitarian world in which news is manufactured according to the will of the authorities and in which tepid people live tepid lives by rote. Dissidents are tracked down and subjected to such discipline as turns them into willing tools of their masters.

Winston Smith, the hero with no heroic qualities, longs only for truth and decency. But living in a social system where privacy does not exist and where holders of unorthodox ideas are brainwashed or summarily put to death, he knows there is no hope for him. His brief love affair ends in arrest by the Thought Police and when, after nine months of torture, he is released, Winston makes his final submission of his own accord.

Seldom has a book provided a greater wealth of symbols for its age and for the generations to follow, and seldom have literary symbols been invested with such power.
