      You’re missing out. It’s one of the few books I’ve read and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed it.

          The question was what’s a popular book everyone buys but no-one reads. Plenty of people read 1984.

              I assume they don’t buy it though.

              And most misquotes and references are sarcastic.

      I think that was one of the books that I had already read when we were assigned it in high school…
