A review by kurtliske
Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell

4.75

Just finished reading, still digesting… heavy book, in a variety of ways. As I revisit a few segments I highlighted it is remarkable how well set up the plot was. The journal, O’Brien, the shopkeeper… I will reread this book at some point and I’m certain it will hit differently. For the moment though it left me feeling… depressed(?). As if my general individualist bend or world view is somehow futile in the face of the Party or Big Brother (or big government) :(
