Scholastic Classics: 1984 by George Orwell (author) (UK edition)

This Scholastic Classics edition of George Orwell’s classic dystopian novel is perfect for students and Orwell enthusiasts alike. Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past. Winston Smith has always been a dutiful citizen of Oceania, rewriting history to meet the demands of the Ministry of Truth. But with each lie that he writes, Winston starts to resent the totalitarian party that seeks power for its own sake and punishes those that desire individuality.When Winston begins a secret relationship with his colleague Julia, he soon realises it’s virtually impossible to escape the watchful eye of Big Brother… Totalitarianism, identity and independence, repression, power, language, rebellion, technology and modernisation are some of the themes that run throughout this novel.
