1984《一九八四》 by George Orwell
1984 still holds chief significance nearly sixty years after it was written in 1949. It is widely acclaimed for its haunting vision of an all-knowing government, which uses pervasive, twenty-four/seven surveillance tactics to manipulate all citizens of the populace.
《一九八四》是奥威尔的传世之作,堪称世界文坛最著名的反乌托邦、反极权的政治讽喻小说。
他在小说中创造的“老大哥”、“双重思想”、“ 新话”等词汇都已收威的英语词典,甚至由他的姓衍生出“奥威尔式” (Orwellian)、“奥威尔主义”(Orwellism)这样的通用词汇,不断出现在报道国际新闻的记者笔下,足见其作品在英语国家影响之深远。
