Dystopian Novels Pillows

“The best books… are those that tell you what you know already.”

O brave new world, that has such people in 't!

"There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them."

This design is inspired by many of the dystopian novels we have read around here. We hope you enjoy.

Orwell' novel "1984"

George Orwell, born Eric Blair in India in 1903, was an English novelist, essayist, journalist, and critic. He is known for his visionary works such as Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-four, as well as his non-fiction classics Down and Out in Paris in London, The Road to Wigan Pier, and Homage to Catalonia.

Someone didn't care for INGSOC's sign, "Big Brother is watching you," so they added a little commentary in Newspeak. Big Brother is doubleplusungood! Orwell's 1984 is a bit too appropriate for our current political situation. See my other liberal designs in the Feminist and LGBTQ album.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.” ― Charles Dickens
