«Probably the definitive novel of the 20th century, a story that remains eternally fresh and contemporary . . . Nineteen Eighty-Four has been translated into more than 65 languages and sold millions of copies worldwide, giving George Orwell a unique place in world literature.»
Robert McCrum, Guardian
«It’s almost impossible to talk about propaganda, surveillance, authoritarian politics, or perversions of truth without dropping a reference to 1984 . . . It is both a profound political essay and a shocking, heartbreaking work of art.»
Atlantic, George Packer
«[1984] does what every novel in the genre should do – combining the illumination of an intriguing idea and the telling of a cracking story . . . The book succeeds because it is no manifesto, but an absorbing, deeply affecting story.»
Independent
«I read it and found myself absolutely astonished at what I read.»
Isaac Asimov
«Nineteen Eighty-Four is a work of pure horror, and its horror is crushingly immediate.»
New York Times (original review)
