A world without privacy. A government without mercy. And one man daring to think.
In a bleak future ruled by Big Brother, every thought is monitored and every move recorded. Winston Smith works rewriting history for the Party, but inside, he dreams of truth and freedom. When he falls for Julia, they ignite a rebellion that could cost them everything. 1984 isn’t just a novel—it’s a chilling prophecy that feels more relevant than ever.
Why you’ll love it: A cornerstone of dystopian fiction that gave us words like thoughtcrime and doublethink. Unsettling, brilliant, and absolutely essential.
📖 Condition: Gently used mass market paperback. Some age toning and minor cover wear—authentic vintage vibes for a classic read.
If you adored: Brave New World (Aldous Huxley), The Handmaid’s Tale (Margaret Atwood), or modern dystopias like The Hunger Games—this classic belongs on your shelf.
Perfect for: Readers who love political intrigue, big ideas, and haunting “what ifs.”
