Good paper quality. Perfect dimensions to read and the story is just awesome. I say it's a must read especially if you're into a little psychological thrillers side

No está 1984.
De los dos títulos que figuran en la portada del libro, no puede leerse más que uno. No está 1984.

I can’t believe I was middle aged before I read this!
The first two thirds of the book is full of interesting descriptions of a totalitarian regime, but there doesn’t seem to be any imminent danger. It’s written kind of like an essay. You feel like the danger is happening to other people when the totalitarian regime is discussed. No doubt Winston is unhappy and living only half a life, but he seems to find some level of happiness in that world. Then all of a sudden it’s over and the real danger, torture and the breaking of the mind begins. It was scary but I couldn’t put it down. I can see why this is a classic and I wish I’d read it earlier in my life. Incredibly well written. Gave me vocabulary lesson too! I know there was a film made about it and there are many cultural references out there, but I feel the time might be right for another film or tv adaptation. To quote George Orwell: “If one simply proclaims that all is for the best and doesn't point to the sinister symptoms, one is merely helping to bring totalitarianism nearer”.
