Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministy of Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the harsh totalitarian world he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of BIG BROTHER, symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and liberty he begins a secret love affair with a fellow worker Julia, but soon discovers that the true price of freedom is betrayal.

Review:
'It is a volley against the authoritarian in every personality, a polemic against every orthodoxy, an anarchistic blast against every unquestioning conformist... Nineteen Eighty-Four is a great novel and a great tract because of the clarity of its call, and it will endure because its message is a permanent one: erroneous thought is the stuff of freedom'-Ben Pimlott
