**1984**, George Orwell, 1949, 183 pages
BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU

Newspeak, Doublethink, Big Brother, the Thought Police - the language of 1984 has passed into the English language as a symbol of the horrors of totalitarianism. George Orwell's story of Winston Smith's fight against the all-pervading Party has become a classic, not the least because of its intellectual coherence. First published in 1949, it retains as much relevance today as it had then.

*NOTE: 1984 is one the most banned book in the United States. It is banned due to its "sexual and social explicitness" and its "troubling ideas about race relations, man's relationship to God, African history, and human sexuality."*
