1984

although this is my first post, i am sorry for its shortness as i really don't have much time to elaborate right now..
as all of you here are, according to me, good writers and precisely, good readers. so i thought it would be important on my part to let you know of the book that i have read recently and appreciated.
so i recommend you should read this book called '1984'. its by George Orwell.
its amazing, if you ask me.. and am pretty sure you will say the same after you read it.. basically the book was written in 1949. so its the author's imagination of the world in the year 1984, when the privacy of the citizens is lost as the ruling party/ government controls each and every mode of information so regularly that even if what the party says today is the opposite of what it said yesterday, you have no evidence to prove it; since all the printed data has been altered almost instantaneously.
thats just a part of it. the negativity of the whole system is so convincing that the book is still a must read. besides lots of things imagined in the book such as the government's control over the people's perspectives is seen even in today's world.
i am not sure if i have described the book properly so as to make it appear worth reading, but trust me, this book is awesome. and ya, its not more than some 350 pages (!). so you could give it a try.
if someone does end up reading it, please tell me how you found it.

thank you.
bye.
