George Orwell’s 1984 is a dystopian novel that explores a nightmarish future where totalitarianism reigns and individual freedom is crushed by an omnipresent state. Set in the fictional superstate of Oceania, the story follows Winston Smith, a low-ranking member of the ruling Party, who secretly despises the regime led by the godlike figure Big Brother.

In this world, every action is monitored, every thought is policed, and truth itself is manipulated through "Newspeak" and the Ministry of Truth. Orwell masterfully constructs a society stripped of privacy, love, and independent thought — where rewriting history is routine and rebellion is a thought crime.

First published in 1949, 1984 remains chillingly relevant, warning of the dangers of authoritarianism, surveillance, and propaganda. It’s not just a novel — it’s a lens through which we view power and freedom today.
