1984

1984 (1949) is a chilling and visionary novel by George Orwell that plunges you into a world where surveillance is constant, truth is manipulated, and free thought is a crime. In a society ruled by Big Brother, Winston Smith tries to rebel against a system that controls reality and erases individual identity. A story of resistance, fear, and absolute power, written with the stark clarity and insight that have made Orwell a key author for understanding the dangers of totalitarianism.

Born Eric Arthur Blair in India, he was educated in England and served in the colonial police in Burma before turning to writing. Orwell was deeply concerned with social justice, political oppression, and the misuse of power, themes that define much of his work. His clear prose and sharp critique of totalitarianism have made him one of the most influential voices of the 20th century.
