First published in the summer of 1949, George Orwell’s 1984 is one of the most definitive texts of modern literature. This delectable leather-bound edition, beautifully crafted and elegantly designed, comes with a ribbon bookmark, gilded edges, and beautiful endpapers.
Set in Oceania, one of the three inter-continental superstates that divided the world among themselves after a global war, Orwell’s masterful critique of the political structures of the time works itself out through the story of Winston Smith, a man caught in the webs of a dystopian future, and his clandestine love affair with Julia, a young woman he meets during the course of his work for the government. As much as it is an entertaining read, 1984 is also a brilliant, and more importantly, a timeless satirical attack on the social and political structures of the world.
