Controversy surrounds the 75th anniversary edition of George Orwell’s *Nineteen Eighty-Four*, published by Berkley Books, due to a trigger warning in a new preface. The preface, written by Dolen Perkins-Valdez, a US novelist , labels the novel’s protagonist, Winston Smith, as “problematic” for his misogynistic views, particularly his dislike of “nearly all women, and especially the young and pretty ones,” which she finds “despicable.” Perkins-Valdez, also notes the novel’s lack of racial representation, making it hard for her, as a black woman, to connect with the characters.
