1984 is a terrifying look at what could be. It was also not intended to be an instruction manual, but a look at what happens when things are taken far, far, far too far.

kojarzycie te książki, które was połykają, potem wypluwają, połykają po raz drugi i trawią was aż w końcu czujecie się zdruzgotani? to jest jedna z takich książek
wizja takie antyutopijnego świata jest przerażająca, ale tak świetnie opisana że wydaje się jak najbardziej prawdziwa
kiedy nauczycielka historii pożyczyła mi tę książkę, to myślałem, że to będzie kapitalistyczna propaganda
oj, jak ja się myliłem
książka porusza bardzo ważne tematy, jest napisana przecudownie
ja pochłonąłem ostatnią jej część w jednym siedzeniu, a podczas punktu kulminacyjnego (jeżeli przeczytał*ś książkę, to wiesz o jaką sytuację chodzi) dosłownie dygotały mi ręce
bez wątpienia lektura uświamiadająca wiele spraw i zmieniająca pogląd na wiele spraw
5⭐ /5
ZDECYDOWANIE POLECAM
chociaż boję się, że ta książka straci na znaczeniu, bo stała się lekturą szkolną ;///
