1984 (Signet Classics)
2 journalers for this copy...
Picked this up at the Book Thing in Baltimore, MD.
This is an utterly fantastic book- amazing and startling. I never tire of reading it, getting drawn into the world and the struggle of the characters.
This version is the Commemorative 1984 Edition and contains a great preface by Walter Cronkite.
The year 1984 is finally upon us, and George Orwell's phrophetic, nightmare vision in 1949 of the world we were becomming 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 that is completely convincing, from the first sentence to the last four words.
