His tuberculosis had once again taken hold and he had just completed what would be unbeknownst to him his final literary and political statement to the world. The prophetic and cultural influence that word would exert can hardly be overstated. Nineteen Eighty-Four is cemented among the great political novels of the twentieth century alongside the likes of Huxley's Brave New World and his own previously published Animal Farm. Had he lived to his eightieth birthday in 1984 how many Orwellian cycles might he have witnessed--where history is rewritten language is weaponized and surveillance hangs over every word<br /> <br /> Presented here is a handsome true first edition in original publisher's green variant dust jacket no priority<br /> <br /> Fenwick A.12a.
