Published in 1948, this cautionary tale follows a lone protagonist who struggles under the rule of a repressive totalitarian government. Set in a future version of England, called Airstrip One, the novel is famous for its imagined language that conjures a cruelly cynical authoritarian regime. One of the most popular novels in the English language, it is part political thriller and part science fiction, and it established the word Orwellian to describe official deception, unwarranted surveillance, and revisionist history by the state.

Could take place today, really get you thinking what kind of world we're living in today. Not much actually happening but it isn't boring. A bit too long, but still a great read.

Amazing. Every part. Of course mostly the world building but only because that is mostly what is present but even when it is presented it feels so natural as to not think. Oh here comes the world building part. Love Big brother.
