ORWELL, George
Nineteen Eighty-Four.
Weston Massachusetts: M&S Press 1984. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength First edition number 43 of 55 deluxe copies from a total edition of 330 copies specially bound by the Grey Parrot bindery quoting the infamous slogans of The Party on the front cover. Published in 1984 this sumptuous privately printed edition presents in facsimile all that survives of the preliminary draft versions of Nineteen Eight-Four a manuscript described by Sonia Orwell as "the only MS of any of George's books in existence". Orwell's classic work of dystopian fiction was begun in 1946 and composed in four stages. The extant manuscript provides the narrative of Nineteen Eighty-Four in outline from the beginning almost to the conclusion with some gaps. As noted by Peter Davison in his Introduction to this edition "despite all the rewriting revealed by this facsimile it is remarkable how closely what has survived adheres to the main sweep of the narrative of Nineteen Eighty-Four. All the principal features except the Appendix on Newspeak are present suggesting that the story had been pretty fully formed in Orwell's mind by the time he sat down to write it". In 1952 Sonia Orwell contributed "the original manuscript of Orwell's last novel partly in typescript but mainly in his own manuscript" to a charity auction at Christie's. It sold to Scribner's of New York who then arranged a sale to a collector in Kansas. Scribner's again handled the manuscript in 1969 when it was sold to Daniel G. Siegel. It is now at Brown University Library. This privately printed limited edition was limited to 330 copies of which there were two issues: 275 copies with morocco-backed marbled boards and 55 copies described as "special copies" which are bound in full morocco by the Gray Parrot bindery with a folding box. The present copy is from the smallest and most deluxe issue and the only one with the party slogans incorporated into the binding. The volume comprises a preface by Daniel G. Siegel an Introduction by Peter Davison 190 colour facsimile illustrations and a full transcript of Orwell's manuscript. Folio. 190 colour facsimile illustrations. Original blue morocco with black onlays by Gray Parrot Easthampton spine lettered in gilt panel to front cover with lettering "War is Peace Freedom is Slavery Ignorance is Strength" in gilt. Light grey endpapers. Housed in original blue morocco-backed grey cloth folding box with spine lettered in gilt. Fine condition. Presented in original numbered cardboard carton. hardcover

Fenwick records two variant states of the dust jacket one green and one red with no priority. Bibliographic note: Orwell's last novel published in 1949 a year before his death. Cyril Connolly described it as written with "particular feeling and clarity" observing that "even the political arguments are never dull. In fact they are worked out with passionate logic. 'Double Think' 'Newspeak' 'Big Brother' now form part of the language. It is a warning against totalitarianism under any disguise left or right" Connolly The Modern Movement 99. Condition: Near fine in a very good dust jacket. cf. Connolly The Modern Movement 99; Fenwick A12a. George Orwell's final novel Nineteen Eighty-Four follows Winston Smith a functionary of the Party in a totalitarian superstate that monitors every citizen and continually rewrites the past. Published in 1949 a year before Orwell's death it gave the language Big Brother Newspeak doublethink and the Thought Police.

Orwell, George
Nineteen Eighty-Four 1984
London: Secker & Warburg 1949. First edition first printing with "First published 1949" on copyright page. Octavo. First edition rebound in modern red morocco with skull buttons and "Winston Smith" lettered in white to left breast with on-laid fake eye to chest with blind-stamped lines; title and name lettered in white on spine; front and rear free endpapers and pastedowns replaced with collage of Orwell's eyes including a secret "trapdoor" on front pastedown disclosing a picture of the Queen of England; minor toning to certain leaves including title page as pictured. Brilliant first edition in remarkable custom binding. First edition of George Orwell's 1903-1950 classic dystopian novel that has captured the imagination and fears of readers critics and social observers ever since its publication in 1949. Orwell's ninth and final book written and published in the closing years of his life Nineteen Eighty-Four provides a gripping and prophetic meditation on the twentieth century's totalitarian movements. Set in an imaginary future 1984 absorbed in conflict the story traces the fate of Winston Smith a diligent party worker in the superstate of Oceania who secretly abhors and yearns to rebel against the ruling Party and its dictatorial leader Big Brother. Equal parts science fiction and cautionary tale Nineteen Eighty-Four accentuates the historical revisionism propaganda practices linguistic manipulation and violence that characterized Stalinist Russia Nazi Germany and other ascendent totalitarian ideologies of the pre- and postwar world. Nineteen Eighty-Four would share important themes with Orwell's satirical and allegorical novella Animal Farm 1945 including an emphasis on social stratification the subordination of the modern individual to the collective the power and manipulability of language and the consequences of ideological revolution. Nineteen Eighty-Four was first published in the UK by Secker & Warburg in 1949 to high critical acclaim and in the US by Harcourt Brace & Company the same year. It has remained a mainstay on popular and critical reading lists ever since and its concepts and neologisms including "Big Brother" "doublespeak" "thoughtcrime" and "memory hole" have managed to endure as important terms in our twenty-first century lexicon-as has the eponymous phrase "Orwellian." In 2005 Time Magazine selected the book as one of the 100 best English-language works published between 1923 and 2005 and the Modern Library named it one of the best works published in the twentieth century. One of the greatest works of modern fiction here in first edition with a striking custom binding. Secker & Warburg unknown

His tuberculosis had once again taken hold and he had just completed what would be unbeknownst to him his final literary and political statement to the world. The prophetic and cultural influence that word would exert can hardly be overstated. Nineteen Eighty-Four is cemented among the great political novels of the twentieth century alongside the likes of Huxley's Brave New World and his own previously published Animal Farm. Had he lived to his eightieth birthday in 1984 how many Orwellian cycles might he have witnessed--where history is rewritten language is weaponized and surveillance hangs over every word<br /> <br /> Presented here is a handsome true first edition in original publisher's green variant dust jacket no priority<br /> <br /> Fenwick A.12a.
