I hate to be the gatekeeper but there's so many fake Orwell fans these days

I hate people calling 1984 a "big tech" dystopia The only real Big Tech is the telescreens and they play a really small role in the plot - the point of the book is everyone is very poor and aside from the telescreens people live like it's the Great Depression still

Both Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451 are way way more about "tech" than 1984 is (F451 isn't really about books being good so much as it is TV being bad)

See, i'd argue that "nineteen eighty-four" and "1984" are exactly equivalent content with different orthography, in the same way as when i spell my name "adrienne" it isn't actually different from spelling it "Adrienne".

In terms of shelving by alphabetical order it's a meaningful distinction
