You've read the book, now live the experience. Welcome to 2018!

Sigh.

In all seriousness, I felt it was important to remind myself of some of the key messages from George Orwell's prescient dystopian novel. In an era of fake news, revisionist history, media manipulation, arguments from authority, mob mentality and "alternative facts", the principles typeset on this poster are meant to anchor one's internal sense of truth in the face of widely accepted lies.

Make Orwell Fiction Again.

Typeset in Futura, metal and wood and printed on a Vandercook at the San Francisco Center for the Book.
