review 1: reread.Doubleplusgood duckspeaker!"doublethink" the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simutaneously, and accepting both of them! (Killing from a Christian point of view is evil or more evil than being killed!)Winston Smith, paperweight, gin, Julia and O'brien.This is one of those classics that I never got around to reading while in high school (it was required, but I just didn't read it ;)... At the request of a colleague I picked this book up last year and was blown away by point of the book. In the chaotic and unclear times we live in, I recommend this book to anyone and everyone who wants to understand what the point of the elite is and what the point of government is. Everything is about control and power ... AND KEEPING IT. We live in the novel ... more1984 ... and that's scary. Should be required reading for all Americans.
review 2: While the book disturbed me, I found it intriguing. The book made me think about current events and pay more observant attention to the people and things around me. 1984 can be depressing but in my opinion describes in a exaggerated metaphoric way the struggles behind the present generation. 1984 made me really think about things that I don't normally like to think about as well form opinions about what I think about the world. Genre- Utopian novel less
