Book Reviews of Nineteen Eighty-Four
Book Review: Best book ive ever read for enligh lit
Summary: 4 Stars
I have to admit that this book started off a bit dull but i was soon taken up by george Orwells use of symbolism. He uses the properganda and lies that were used in world war 2 to predict the furture. He predicts what will hapen by 1984 from the 1940's when he wrote the book. This is one of the first books that have really gripped me into the story line, as i found myself unable to put the book down. A great read and a nice break from shakespeare in english =).
