The real wealth in that book is the vocabulary.
His political theory of real-world relations was at the time probably quite the blow; now days we arrive easily at his thoughts.
The focus of the book was the importance of nlingustics

Lol the idea of putting out books to impress people is ridiculous. The only people that would fall for that are the kind you'd never want to impress much less have in your home anyway.

I have my moms collection of Eastern Press leather bound books on display. It's all the "classics" - over 300 books.
But I put them on display because they look fancy, not because of their content. Leather bound books look nice, so sue me. All my "actual" books are shitty paperbacks stored in a pile in the spare room. No one gives a shit that I read Catch-22 or Tolkein's lost tales.

That's a little different than getting books to impress people and pretending to have read them.

I agree but that's part of the appeal. Using a bookshelf at all means you're choosing to display them. You might as well do it in a way where you get to learn who the plebs are based on what they have to say.

My wife has a shirt that says make Orwell fiction again. I was thinking about getting one for myself, but I know she would decide to wear hers when I want to wear mine just to mess with me. It's a pretty cool shirt though.

Did you know that after the movie “Schindler’s List” came out the publishers changed it to non-fiction and book stores began selling it as such?
Originally it was understood to be complete fiction to the point where it had a giant warning in the beginning talking about how the whole book was the author’s imagination.
