I decided to re-read this in English. I had forgotten many details but I still remember how terrible the Finnish translation for the word telescreen is. The book is a classic, often quoted and badly misunderstood. It was banned in Soviet Union and censored in Finland. Although it's pretty good description of a dystopian society, it also focussing too much on technical details instead of the characters. Good but could be better.
