First published in 1948, The present book 1984 is a dystopian novel by prominent twentieth century novelist, essayist and social critique Eric Arthur Blair under his popular pseudonym George Orwell. The novel is set in Airstrip one, a province of the superstate Oceania in a world of perpetual war, omnipresent government surveillance and public manipulation. The superstate and its residents are dictated to by a political regime euphemistically named English socialism, shortened to ‘Ingsoc’ in Newspeak, the government’s invented language. The superstate is under the control of the privileged elite of the inner party, a party and government that persecutes individualism and independent thinking as ‘thought-crime’, which is enforced by the ‘thought police’. this novel, in a way, criticizes the forced implement of the colonial thought system and life onto various colonies by the great Britain.

George Orwell

George Orwell, the great essayist, novelist and journalist, was the pen-name of Eric Arthur Blair. He was a keen critic of imperialism, fascism, stalinism, and capitalism. His works are concerned with the socio-political conditions of his time, chiefly with the problem of human freedom. His plain colloquial style made him highly effective as pamphleteer and journalist.
