First of all, I would like to say that I dont usually read 'fiction' books... but this one is not really fiction ...
I think you understood the main part of the story from the other reviews already...
According to me, this novel really makes you think about the world we are living in ..when discussing with friends about '1984', they told me that this book represents our future ... but I have the feeling that there is already some truth in this novel ...
When G. Orwell writes about the control of the history, and the publications .. I see some parallelism with the way our medias are controlled as well ..
This book really makes you think.. that s what I liked about it...
