1984 Nineteen Eighty-Four (Im Deutsch/In German) Book

1984 : Paperback : Verlag Ullstein : 9783548234106 : : 22 Jan 2001 : b BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU s George Orwells 1984 ist längst zu einer scheinbar nicht mehr erklärungsbedürftigen Metapher für totalitäre Verhältnisse geworden. Mit atemberaubender Unerbittlichkeit zeichnet der Autor das erschreckende Bild einer durch und durch totalitären Gesellschaft, die bis ins letzte Detail durchorganisierte Tyrannei einer absolute autoritären Staatsmacht. Seine düstere Vision hat einen beklemmenden Wirklichkeitsbezug, dem sich auch der Leser von heute nur schwer entziehen kann.Read More

  • Amazon Review

    Among the seminal texts of the 20th century, Nineteen Eighty-Four is a rare work that grows more haunting as its futuristic purgatory becomes more real. Published in 1949, the book offers political satirist George Orwell's nightmare vision of a totalitarian, bureaucratic world and one poor stiff's attempt to find individuality. The brilliance of the novel is Orwell's prescience of modern life--the ubiquity of television, the distortion of the language--and his ability to construct such a thorough version of hell. Required reading for students since it was published, it ranks among the most terrifying novels ever written.

  • Product Description

    Newspeak, Doublethink, Big Brother, and the Thought Police - the language of 1984 has passed into the English Language as a symbol of the horrors of totalitarianism. George Orwell's story of Winston Smith's fight against the all-pervading party has become a classic, not the least because of its intellectual coherence.
