1984 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788129116116)

In an England torn apart by wars, civil conflict, and revolution, Winston Smith struggles to survive in a one-room apartment in the bleak province of Airstrip One. In this totalitarian society--where individuality is forbidden and every thought is monitored by the omnipresent Thought Police--the Party dictates every aspect of life under the watchful eye of its mysterious leader, Big Brother.

Tele-screens, hidden cameras, and secret microphones ensure constant surveillance, allowing no room for dissent. As an editor at the Ministry of Truth, Winston's job is to rewrite history--altering records, editing photographs, erasing "unpersons," and consigning original documents to the "memory hole." But as he secretly begins to question the regime, Winston starts a forbidden journal chronicling his doubts about the Party and its leader.

When he meets Julia, who shares his disdain for Big Brother, their clandestine love affair offers a fleeting glimpse of freedom. Together, they dare to believe they can escape the Party's control and join the Brotherhood--an underground resistance determined to wage war against tyranny. Yet, in a world where truth itself is manipulated, rebellion may come at the ultimate cost.
