In This Novel, Continuously Popular Since Its First Publication, Readers Can Explore The Dark And Extraordinary World He Brought So Fully To Life.The Principal Characters Who Lead Us Through That World Are Ordinary Human Beings Like Ourselves: Winston Smith And Julia, Whose Falling In Love Is Also An Act Of Rebellion Against The Party.
