1984                          COVERS

 

Study the covers and jackets of various editions of Orwell’s 1984, novel and movie.  Although we are admonished not to judge a book by its cover, what aspect(s) of the novel does each emphasize? Is there anything misleading in the visuals?  Are any of them dated? How effective is each?
