I read this book when i was on highschool and got the rebel feeling. Now i'm reading with more knowledge on the world, specialy technology and politics and it's clear how a lot of goberments are using the book as a manual. In the last part of the novel i was thinking about Jack Ma when he "laid low" after he spoke against the CCP, or other personalities that where against the system like Alexei Navalni, Julian Assange or Snowden.

My favorite novel of all time despite all of the preconceived notions I held before reading it. Wish I would have had a teacher who taught this book in school but regardless Orwell still has me writing essays in my own notes. Atmosphere, pacing, respect for the audience, yet accessible. 1984.. I love big brother 👁️🗨️
