It doesn't sound at all like the same book, but...

There is a book by Anthony Burgess (he of A Clockwork Orange fame) called 1985, which I once owned. You can find info (including spoilers) on it here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1985_(A..._Burgess_novel)

Note that, as it says, it's a series of essays/interviews, and a novella.

My book's cover had a simple picture of a rose draining of colour from red to white, as attached.

Cheers,
Marc
