Nineteen eighty four

If you have not read1984, you have not lived. For you have to have experienced the horror and the terror,before you can appreciate the beauty and fullness of life. A cross between a political thriller and a love story, 1984 is one of those rare books that will touch your deepest desires and fears - love and torture; loyalty and betrayal; hope and dispair.Orwell's classic novel is a raw and haunting allegory of oppressor and oppressed, set against the backdrop of a regime ruled by the iron fist of Big Broter, the all-powerfull, all-knowing and ruthless Party leader, whose gigantic image looms everywhere, and whose spies can pry into even the most intimate secrets of one's private life. There is no escaping: 'Big Brother is watching you.'
