I just want to say that I felt that giving a speech would be better than making a video because there’s really no way that I can make 1984 funny. I would honestly classify George Orwell’s work as a horror novel. It doesn’t have the traditional horror elements like zombies or a haunted house. That kind of horror is child’s play. The horror in 1984 is the scariest kind because it almost seems plausible. The story revolves around a totalitarian society where the government is trying and succeeding to

There are many characters in the novel 1984. These characters all rebel in separate and distinctive ways from each other. In George Owell’s not so sanguine vision of the year 1984 from his standpoint in 1949‚ he tells of a dreary future of what the world was becoming. In this future‚ no one has the right to anything‚ including free speech‚ freedom of press or even freedom of thought. Even the details like the history of the known world are changed by a corrupt and ever growing political party‚ which
