Traceys Lesson - War of the Worlds

George Orwell - Nineteen Eighty Four 


One of the most influential dystopian novels ever written, 1984 has had a profound effect on the world.

Published in 1949 many of its concepts have entered modern day language. Big Brother, doublethink, thoughtcrime, Newspeak and Room 101.

Orwellian is now a term to describes official deception, secret surveillance, and manipulation of the past by a totalitarian or authoritarian state.  Orwell hoped that by writing 1984 he’d help stop such a state ever coming to pass.
