1984 by george orwell

1984 tells the story of Winston Smith, a government official working for the Ministry of Truth, where his daily task is to erase and alter history. Despite his role in maintaining the regime, Winston harbors a quiet but growing hatred for the system, fighting inwardly for truth, freedom, and sanity.

Deeply influenced by the rise of totalitarian regimes in the 1930s and 40s, George Orwell’s 1984 remains essential reading for anyone concerned with freedom of thought and action. Beyond its sharp political insights, it stands as a gripping and powerful novel.

This edition includes a 28-page section on George Orwell’s life and era, along with his personal essay Why I Write, offering reflections on his motivations and creative process. The book is designed by Petri Salmela in Helsinki, with red cloth binding and serigraphic, foil, and debossed details.
