Nineteen Eighty-Four by Dj Taylor
A new edition of Orwell's timeless dystopian classic, introduced and annotated by his biographer, D.J. Taylor Since its first publication in 1949, Orwell's devastating expose of the totalitarian mind has established itself as the most influential political satire of the modern age. Winston Smith's doomed rebellion against the all-seeing eye of Big Brother, and a world corrupted by technology and the perversion of language, is as relevant now as it ever was. This new edition includes an introduction and extensive end-notes, and an appendix containing original responses to the novel and several of Orwell's essays from the period in which Nineteen Eighty-Four was written.
D. J. Taylor is a writer and critic. He is the author of the acclaimed biography Orwell: The Life, published in 2003 to coincide with the centenary of Orwell's birth. This book won the 2003 Whitbread Biography Award. His other books of non-fiction include A Vain Conceit: British fiction in the 1980s; Bright Young People: The Rise and Fall of a Generation 1918-1940 and, most recently, Lost Girls: Love, War and Literature: 1939-51. He is also the author of seven novels.
