Not at all lightweight - well written and un-put downable!
A classic. George Orwell had an uncanny knack of predicting how certain trends in society could be exploited. Their weaknesses used to the determent of society as a whole. Free speech and even to be in love could (and in the book) was forbidden and punished. Constant surveillance with the use of cameras was everywhere. The spirit to resist was broken and the reader follows the progress of a doomed love affair.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

1984 is a book you can’t judge by its cover
1984 is a book you can’t judge by its cover it’s set in an alternative time but if you read it and see things the way it’s set we are kind of in the 1984 universe it’s a classic of a book it’s something I read and enjoyed so much it worth reading so grab a copy and read it and see how things could have beenVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

1984
Obviously the story speaks for itself, but I like the quality of the paper it is printed on, your finger slides over the smooth paper without catching, not like the Penguin paperback, which has the horrible scratchy paper the puts your teeth on edgeVerified purchase: YesCondition: New
