From Amazon for approx. 13.43 plus tax
7-. Despite the comparison to todays news, I felt the book was overlong and boring beyond belief.
The following review from Amazon refers to this book and Animal Farm:
Read it. These are the books that are being used this very day as as play-by-play guides on how to subvert a people. The most uncomfortable part about re-reading these two great works by Orwell, is that we are worse than we have ever been in the USA. Much worse, than when I was a young lad, and reading these as mandatory homework in school.
If you are a young person today, and have not read these books; my first question is why? If you want to understand a lot more about our political situation, read them both. Pay particular attention to "doublespeak" and "face crime". On a more detailed note, when I first read these books back in the early 70's, the "face crime" thing seemed a little far fetched back then. The technology just wasn't there yet. A few months ago, I was reading about a new technology that will enable computers to examine facial expressions via camera. The computers will pick up what it thinks is a look of nervousness or stress in an individual, and alert the all watching eyes. The first people to use this tech, will likely be the TSA. Wonder why you are being pulled out of the line for further questioning? You may have committed a face crime. Bone chilling.
A must read for every citizen on the planet.
