Krátky popis
Ravaged by years of war and civil conflict, Britain has changed its
name to Airstrip One and become part of Oceania - one of the three
totalitarian blocks dominating the world - ruled by a mysterious
leader called Big Brother who keeps the population in thrall
through strict surveillance and brutal police repression. In a
society where the individual is suppressed and turned into an
",unperson", for not conforming, and where not only personal
thought, but also historical record and language itself are
constantly being manipulated by the ruling regime, Ministry of
Truth worker Winston Smith tries to make sense of the rebellious
thoughts and passions that are stirring inside him, and finds
himself impotent against the inexorable machine that surrounds him
and threatens to crush him at any time. Arguably the greatest
dystopian novel of all time and the most influential post-war work
of fiction - which enriched the English language with words such as
",Newspeak",, ",doublethink", and ",thoughtcrime", - Nineteen
Eighty-Four is a riveting read and a groundbreaking exploration of
mass surveillance, censorship and mind control, which has a deep
resonance with the world we live in.
