a timeless classic that everyone should read as Orwell portrays issues that are still (and increasingly) relevant today!

It was a classic to read, now its done ! It's really frightening to realize how close thus book is from modern society. A lot has changed but in the worst ways. The people in the 40s were worried about sciences and dehumanisation, we are more worried now about the power the "High" got and how do they use it. But it's still an interesting book ! I recommand it to whoever wants to read some dystopian books to open their minds and not end like the people living in Oceania
