1984 Nineteen-Eighty Four
George Orwell
Ravaged by years of war and civil conflict,
Britain has changed its name to Airstrip One and become part of Oceania - one
of the three totalitarian blocks dominating the world - ruled by a mysterious
leader called Big Brother who keeps the population in thrall through strict
surveillance and brutal police repression. In a society where the individual is
suppressed and turned into an "unperson" for not conforming, and
where not only personal thought, but also historical record and language itself
are constantly being manipulated by the ruling regime, Ministry of Truth worker
Winston Smith tries to make sense of the rebellious thoughts and passions that
are stirring inside him, and finds himself impotent against the inexorable
machine that surrounds him and threatens to crush him at any time.
Arguably the greatest dystopian novel of all
time and the most influential post-war work of fiction - which enriched the
English language with words such as "Newspeak",
"doublethink" and "thoughtcrime" - Nineteen Eighty-Four is
a riveting read and a groundbreaking exploration of mass surveillance,
censorship and mind control, which has a deep resonance with the world we live
in.
