An Analysis of the book “1984” by George Orwell

For the second part.

Nineteen Eighty-four (1984) is a novel that illustrated dystopian future and a world with totalitarianism
reigned all over the world and individualism is forbidden. It also regarded facts, reality and history as opinions
that needed to be “erased” from the minds of people. The novel takes place in an alternate timeline of what
has happened on the world after World War II. The world is divided on only three super states, Oceania,
which includes former United Kingdom and the British Empire, United States and the rest of American
continent, Eurasia, which includes the former Soviet Union and all of mainland Europe, and Eastasia, formerly
China. These three states are at constant war with each other for the control of the area called the Equatorial
Front, which encompasses all of former North Africa, Middle East, India and the rest of Southeast Asia. This
is the alternate world of the novel.

wanted to get free to the gaze of the omnipresent eyes of Big Brother. At last, for ultimate freedom, they
wanted to be part of The Brotherhood, a underground organization of all the dissenters of the Party. They
are ordained as part of The Brotherhood by O'Brien, an Inner Party member. But all of the activities of the
couple were made known by the Thought Police. The couple was then captured and detained in the Ministry
of Love.
While they are detained in the Ministry of Love, Smith found out that O'Brien was a Party Spy, working
with the Thought Police to capture him and Julia. There, O'Brien spends months on torturing and
brainwashing Smith, who
