Book Club: George Orwell’s ‘1984’

April 5, 2017 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

George Orwell’s “1984” has become a best-seller in the days after President Trump took office. Penguin, the publisher, reports a 9,500 percent sales increase since Trump’s inauguration. The classic dystopian work introduced the world to the terms “Big Brother,” “thought police,” “newspeak” and “doublethink”—words that many are finding have new meaning under the Trump administration.

Please join the UVa Book Club in April for a discussion on George Orwell’s classic dystopian novel.
