The pieces I have chosen to focus on are “Maggie: A Girl of the Streets” and Clockwork Angel. “Maggie: A Girl of the Streets” was written by Stephen Crane and published in 1893 under the pseudonym‚ Johnston Smith.

Out of the two books “1984” and “Brave New World” my option that I chose that we should read for class‚ is 1984. 1984 takes place in Oceania‚ the total superpower in post-World War II.
