London was blanket bombed and left in rubble by the Germans. Like many

writers he decided to make a statement with his work, and did. George Orwell's

novel 1984 was written as a political statement of against totalitarianism.

Totalitarianism is a form of government that tries to assert total control

over its citizens (Comptons). Being nothing like democracy, totalitarianism is like

communism, as it also has one party rule, no free and open elections, and due

process is not guaranteed, however totalitarianism is much more controlling.

1984 is about life in a world where no personal freedon exists. The book's

main character is a man named Winston Smith. He is not a heroic type of person

nor is he extraordinarily intelligent. However, Winston hassomething that the

Soviet communists who were trying to kill him. During Stalin's reign over 10

was sixty (Orwell 109). She tries to look as pure as possible as to not arouse

government isn't as right as the people think it is.
