Lots Of Things To Learn From This Book

This book should be a part of every high school circulum. If you plan on majoring in political science in college or at least plan on being an informed member of society, you should read this book.

Though a plot-driven book is not really my style, I really did enjoy this novel from a political stand point. Big Brother is really something to think about, as well as the brain-washing and censorship. It can happen. And I think Orwell really gives the reader a realistic perspective into what could happen if the government is given too much power. Though this was written in the 40’s, you can’t tell. This book is timeless.
