Description: Octavo size, 328 pp. George Orwell (born Eric Arthur Blair, 1903-1950) is renowned for his works "Animal Farm" and "1984" and his outspoken criticism of totalitarianism and authoritarian social practices. Many of the words and expressions used in his work, including "Big Brother", "Thought Police", "doublethink", and "thoughtcrime" have entered the popular culture and are routinely used today. This work, "Nineteen Eighty-Four", was published shortly before Orwell's death of tuberculosis. Made into films at least twice, it is, along with Huxley's "Brave New World", one of "the century's most famous English-language Dystopia.It is a book of hectic, devilish, claustrophobic intensity." (n.b., quote from "The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction" by John Clute and Peter Nicholls, p. 896). ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in full leather by The Easton Press, this noted on the title page as the "Collector's Edition", with gilt images and lettering on both covers and the spine, all edges gilt, white satin ribbon marker, patterened endpapers, the frontis illustration in full colour by Frank Kelly Freas (note that this version is without the interior illustrations by Alan Clark); octavo size, pagination: [i-ii] iii-xiii [1, blank] [1-2] 3-314. ___CONDITION: Fine, the leather covers supple, clean and unworn, straight corners without rubbing, a strong, square text block with solid hinges, the interior is clean and bright, and entirely free of prior owner markings; clean, crisp, and as new. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB, and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

PINEAPPLE NOT INCLUDED ABOUT THE BOOK: Written more than 70 years ago, 1984 was George Orwell s chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, his dystopian vision of a government that will do anything to control the narrative is timelier than ever. Nominated as one of America s best-loved novels by PBS s The Great American Read The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. Winston Smith toes the Party line, rewriting history to satisfy the demands of the Ministry of Truth. With each lie he writes, Winston grows to hate the Party that seeks power for its own sake and persecutes those who dare to commit thoughtcrimes. But as he starts to think for himself, Winston can t escape the fact that Big Brother is always watching. A startling and haunting novel, 1984 creates an imaginary world that is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the novel s hold on the imaginations of whole generations, or the power of its admonitions a power that seems to grow, not lessen, with the passage of time. CONDITION: Book is in LIKE NEW condition for its age with only a couple of faint, negligible rubs to the gilt page ends, barely worth noting (SEE PICS FOR BETTER DETAILS).
