书籍简介

温斯顿-史密斯躲在庞大的真理部的记录部里，巧妙地改写过去，以适应党的需要。然而，他在内心深处反抗他所生活的极权主义世界，这个世界要求他服从，并通过象征性--"老大哥 "的望远镜和警惕的目光控制他。在对真理和自由的渴望中，史密斯开始了与同事朱莉娅的秘密恋情，但很快发现自由的真正代价是背叛。

Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling of Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the Party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the totalitarian world he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of Big Brother, symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and liberty, Smith begins a secret affair with a fellow-worker Julia, but soon discovers the true price of freedom is betrayal.
