This is the first book I would like to get my friends to read:
1984 by George Orwell, 1948

As literary political fiction and dystopian science-fiction, Nineteen Eighty-Four is a classic novel in content, plot and style. Many of its terms and concepts, such as Big Brother, doublethink, thoughtcrime, Newspeak, Room 101, telescreen, 2 + 2 = 5 and memory hole, have entered everyday use since its publication in 1949. Nineteen Eighty-Four popularised the adjective Orwellian, which describes official deception, secret surveillance and manipulation of recorded history by a totalitarian or authoritarian state.
This book is a warning about when the party controls reality by controlling the minds of its people, machines act like men, men act like machines, where in the end you too will learn to love Big Brother.
