About this book
Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.
In the totalitarian superstate of Oceania, life is a war that never ends. History is a lie that is rewritten every day. And love is a thoughtcrime, punishable by vaporization.
Winston Smith is a loyal party worker who has secretly begun to hate. He hates the omnipresent posters, the telescreens that watch his every move, and the empty slogans that have replaced language itself. He begins to search for a place where the Party has no power—a small, forbidden space in his own mind, and in the arms of a fellow rebel, Julia.
But their search for freedom draws the attention of the Party's true enforcers. Led by the mesmerizing O'Brien, they are about to lead Winston to Room 101, where his worst fear awaits. There, he will learn that the Party's ultimate goal is not power over the body, but absolute possession of the mind.
Nineteen Eighty-Four is a chilling prophecy about the nature of power and a timeless, devastating exploration of the fight for truth and humanity in a world that has outlawed both.
