1984 is a terrifying look at what could be. It was also not intended to be an instruction manual, but a look at what happens when things are taken far, far, far too far.

Though written in 1948 it still feels modern and discusses issues that have never been more important.
I think everyone should read this book at least once in their life, believe me, you won`t regret it.
