5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular!, April 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Bloom's Reviews/ Comprehensive Research & Study Guides: George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four (Paperback)
Written to be a comment on what happens when socialist dictators take over it extends well beyond. It touched upon what it means to be a person, the rights all should have and a graphic depiction on what it takes for a man to give up his principles. A grand, grand, grand book. One of the best written in a good time.

3.0 out of 5 stars A review of a really good book by Amanda Easton, October 22, 2005
A Kid's Review
I thought that this book was a bit slow getting started but once you get passed that all the book gets very interesting. I really only wanted to read this book because I knew that Big Brother the television serise was based on this,but no I have relised what it is all actually about and the story behind it which isnt just another reality show.It was excellent the way that Orwell protrade Winston throughout the whole book and the use of all the other characers emphasised this greatly.I really enjoyed this book and just how Orwell protraded the future of the wrold in 1984.
