A Political prophecy of Sorts
Uncanny book!! Orwell must have had a crystal ball when he pinned this book. Looking back, he was right on target with his information. Since I have lived through that time and have had a first hand look at a lot of the things he spoke about, I am startled at his being able to predict with such accuracy, the world's current condition. It is a MUST book to read.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
