English-language edition. Lost the truth in a sea of lies? Don't know who to trust? Are you being bombarded with hate from your screens? Welcome to "1984." You hold in your hands a survival guide to a world of officially mandated doublethink. A world where two plus two equals five. A world where there is no past or future, only an ugly present. George Orwell was an English writer and journalist, a socialist who fought against the fascists in Spain. Back in 1949, he wrote the visionary dystopia "1984" – one of the best-selling books of our time. Its world is one of an elite that enforces ignorance. Its control over humanity is complete and unwavering. Even unorthodox thoughts are forbidden in this society. Those who sin in thought are sent for re-education to the dark dungeons of the Ministry of Love. The protagonist is one of those unfortunate souls too attached to the world of the past. The days of such people are numbered. Knowing this, he decides to take a desperate step in a society of unquestioned dogma: start a diary. This diary will recount the days of the last man in Europe who dared to dream and love. This book is published in an unadapted version. While enjoying George Orwell's language and Newspeak in the original, remember that Big Brother is watching you.
