1984+Review

1984 was a very challenging book to read. It took me some time to figure out what was actually going on. I knew it was a book that foreshadowed the future of European government. George Orwell wrote this book during World War II, when Germany and the Soviet Union were trying to take over Europe and Asia. Orwell saw that the Eastern Hemisphere was on brink of beginning a new world order. He saw that nobody could even think bad thoughts about the government without being detained.

Orwell's novel was like a warning for the remaining European countries that did not fall victim to Germany or the Soviet Union. He warned that the remaining countries be prepared for drastic changes to their way of life. They were about to become slaves of the new order. They could accept the changes, move out of the continent, or fight back. Some chose to fight, some retreated, and some stayed. Although in the end, the fighting kept happening and the war came to an end. They did not lose any freedoms.

I would defintely recommend this book to anyone who likes thrilling mysteries that pertain to real life situations. Even though it was a fairly difficult peace of literature, I would encourage more people to read it.
