1984 is a political fiction and dystopian science fiction, one of George Orwell’s greatest classics. He penned down his horrible vision about a ‘negative utopia’ that could emerge if a governing body of authority were to be left unchecked and unchallenged. The admonitions that he gave about the horrible world in which nobody enjoyed anymore freedom and love and where everybody behaved according to the wills and powers of Big Brother were at first exaggerating and laughable, yet these visions are able to strike a cord in most wary readers who identify with the stubborn nature of politics and power, and how a blind combination of both could possibly lead to a social system that is worse than anarchy – a social system containing imperceptibly lost souls and individuals who are incapable of generating personal thoughts. It is this indubitable wariness that George Orwell had hoped to awaken among those who are as yet blissfully ignorant or lost.
