1985 by Anthony Burgess

slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

1.0

This book is the equivalent to being opposite a racist family member at dinner: I think it’s a far greater insight into National Front UKIP style ideology in the UK than a compelling take on 1984. Really bizzare, racist, and laughably bad plot points at times.
