Throughout its publication history, Nineteen Eighty-Four has been either banned or legally challenged as subversive and ideologically corrupting. It is perhaps the single-most cited book warning of a dystopian future, and many believe it is just as relevant today as it was when it was published. “Big brother is watching you” continues to be the ultimate symbol of a government which transforms a society into one driven by false ideologies and despair. In very good condition with some fraying to board edges, and previous owner’s name written vertically on the back inside edge. Includes a new facsimile cover printed on acid-free paper and enclosed in archival quality mylar.
