    Isn’t 1984 a fictional book?

    Have heard people say online that Inventing Reality and Manufactured Consent are better than that for analysis.

    Haven’t read any of those books tho.
    Which would be better?

      1984 was intended as fictional. Eric Blair wrote it in 1948.

      I’m not sure that it is anymore.

      His books are all pretty good. “Down and out in Paris and London” (or is it London and Paris? It’s been a minute) is one of my favourites.
