foxwish's review against another edition

The book has brilliant ideas but every other aspect of this book resulted in me feeling like I had to force myself to keep going. This book is by no means fun or enjoyable, I thought I'd be able to push through because of the interesting ideas but when Winston spends 31 pages reading a dense book I decided that was enough.
