I don’t really know how to write this one as I am not really one of those who report on books.

Just wanna say to y’all who didn’t read the book you should really go get it. It tells the story of a very dark world, where each uniqueness of our world is exaggerated and shaded, where all is inspected, monitored and controlled by a central authority. a centralized world, where nothing is beautiful but one thing - the common truth. How does living in a world like this feels? How far fetched is this world from ours? What is the nature of truth, and freedom?

These are my thoughts. hope that’s working for you.

    Is this because of the animation movie with the farm animals and your beloved leader bring depicted as a fat pig?

      I don’t care about boring films about boring books, I’ve despised Orwell’s works since the moment I’ve read them when I was a liberal, because they are of poor quality. 1984 is even misogynous with its portrayal of the female character and the whole story is poorly written, as others have pointed out, there are better implementations of the same idea, such as a Brave New World.
