George Orwell (real name — Eric Arthur Blair) was an English novelist, essayist, journalist, and critic. His work is characterized by piercing social criticism, opposition to totalitarianism, and open support for humanity's democratic aspirations. He is the author and popularizer of the term "Cold War" in political discourse. "1984" is undoubtedly the most famous dystopia in the world, first published in 1949. The book tells the story of Winston Smith, a low-ranking member of the Party, who is disillusioned with everyday life and the omnipresent eyes of the Party and its sinister leader — Big Brother. Big Brother controls all aspects of life: he has implemented a simplified Newspeak, trying to completely suffocate even the possibility of resistance to the system; he has criminalized thought crimes, so that people do not even dare to think about rebellion against the authorities. The Party controls everything: what people read, say, do, threatening to send disobedient individuals to the terrifying "Room 101." Orwell vividly and expressively explores themes of media control, government surveillance, totalitarianism, and how a dictator can manipulate and control history, thoughts, and lives in such a way that no living soul can escape the watchful eye of Big Brother.
