George Orwell’s 1984 is a powerful exploration of power, surveillance, truth and the human desire for freedom. In a world where language can be manipulated, history rewritten and individuality crushed, Winston Smith dares to question the reality imposed upon him. Written in 1949, Orwell’s vision remains startlingly relevant today, confronting questions about who controls information, how truth is shaped, and what happens when we surrender our freedom for security, comfort and conformity.
