Description
The year 1984 has come and gone, but George Orwell’s prophetic, nightmarish vision in 1949 of the world we were becoming is timelier than ever. 1984/em is still the modern classic of “negative utopia”– a startingly original and haunting novel that creates an imaginary world that is completely convincing, from the first sentence to the last four words. No one can deny the novel’s hold on the imaginations of whole generations, or the power of its admonitions–a power that seems to grow, not lesson, with the passage of time.Lexile Measure:/ 950LCopyright 1977, 312 pages, paperback, 4 by 7 inches.
