Grappling  with the principles of democracy and the potential of reform, the  meaning of literature and free speech in times of violence, and the  sustainability of objective truth, Orwell offers a compelling portrayal  of a nation where norms and ideals can no longer be taken for granted.  Like the best of Orwell's writing, these essays also serve as timeless  reminders of the fragility of freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57150271652215,"sku":"9780241455678","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/3199\/6807\/files\/9780241455678.jpg?v=1780667631","url":"https:\/\/thebookhousebroughtyferry.co.uk\/products\/9780241455678","provider":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
