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.

      Was that supposed to be some sort of joke or do you actually not know Orwell himself was: a rapist, a snitch, a plagiarist, and a racist? One man, four horrible qualities.

        No, the joke was the the former. And not the point of the post. Rather than dismiss the reality we’re in, presented by various authors reflecting the cyclical nature of mankind, it would be advantageous to the self to reflect on as well.
