Apparently, moving stuff around is some sort of political or social statement. Maybe it is because I’m getting old but I’m conflicted. While the image below is extremely amusing to me, the person most likely to notice this in a bookstore is an employee, and the employee is probably just going to sigh and put it back. Maybe chuckle.
In the end this ends up being just like graffiti. While some can be very cool, most are just penises or names scribbled on a wall. Plus, no matter how cool, so images are just not appropriate in some locations. Anyway, I guess the idea is force people to look at a book out of context, but I don’t really understand using 1984. How can it be taken as anything other than a warning?
