Cautionary tale or accurate prediction of our current lives? This epic dystopian fictional novel is a literary masterpiece told through the eyes of Winston Smith, an everyman who finds himself engulfed in the trenches of the ruling Party and rebelling Brotherhood. Every page invokes the reader to question their own lives and our current connectiveness with the virtual world. Do we, in the 21st century, live in an oppressive society that Orwell predicted almost 100 years ago? Reading this book opens one’s eyes to what society really is: corrupt.
