1984 by George Orwell Summary
Overview of 1984
Orwell's dystopian masterpiece sparked global panic when sales surged after NSA surveillance leaks. "1984" introduced "Big Brother" into our lexicon and topped bestseller lists when Conway's "alternative facts" eerily echoed the novel's "doublethink." What freedoms would you surrender for security?

The Watchful Eye: A Society Under Constant Surveillance
Imagine waking up every morning knowing your every word, gesture, and facial expression is being monitored. This is Winston Smith's reality in the decaying city of London, now called Airstrip One in the superstate of Oceania. The year is 1984, and the Party, led by the enigmatic Big Brother, controls every aspect of life through omnipresent telescreens that both transmit and receive. Even a nervous tic or momentary doubt-a "facecrime"-can mark someone for "vaporization" by the Thought Police. Winston works at the Ministry of Truth, where his job is to literally rewrite history-altering newspaper articles, photographs, and records to match current Party narratives. When chocolate rations are reduced from thirty grams to twenty, Winston must rewrite history to claim they've been increased to twenty. Most disturbing is watching his fellow citizens celebrate this "increase" without questioning the contradiction. The Party's control extends beyond surveillance into human connection itself. Children spy on parents through the Youth League and Junior Spies. Mrs. Parsons lives in terror of her own children, who eventually denounce their father for muttering "Down with Big Brother" in his sleep. Marriage exists solely for procreation, with couples requiring Party approval and sexual pleasure considered thoughtcrime. What makes this world so terrifying isn't just the brutality but the psychological manipulation. Citizens practice "doublethink"-holding contradictory beliefs simultaneously. They must believe the Party is always right while knowing they're participating in elaborate falsifications. They must love Big Brother while fearing his omnipresent gaze.
