Nineteen Eighty-Four [1984]

250 pp. 8vo. An interesting edition of Orwell's classic novel, designed by Robbie Mahoney and illustrated by Alex Williamson. Set in a totalitarian future and featuring Winston Smith, the book inspired several film and TV adaptations, and surely factored into the production of other films such as Gattaca and Equilibrium. It is considered among the most important works of dystopian literature. In 1984 the novel received a Prometheus Hall of Fame Award, an honor created by science fiction author L. Neil Smith to recognize libertarian fiction.
