The Struggle in 1984 (1984)In a world controlled by a higher power, where one lives in constant fear of doing or saying something wrong, thoughts can be incriminating. Even worse, any impure thought could make you disappear. Being constantly watched and observed without knowing it.

In George Orwell's novel 1984, the government uses advanced mind-reading techniques to discover people's thoughts and punish those who show signs of rebellion. against the government. The novel is supposed to be a prophetic story, however, it was somehow wrong in predicting the date when this government would take the reins. Although some themes described in the book are now realities, others will not be realized for some time to come and that is why this novel continues to be overwhelming for us today. Perhaps Orwell's purpose in writing 1984 was to express his feelings about how governments would come to control everything and anything they wanted to do. It is also possible that he wanted to tell how mind control and torture techniques could be used to make an individual or an entire nation do what the government wants.

Orwell used the image of a man who stood in a shadow covering his face.
