El Blanco I see us heading more towards a Brave New World. Which I see as the same result as 1984 but the path was a polar opposite.

I've never read the novel, but I do keep reading revues, and commentary about George Orwell. To answer your question I would say no, we're not heading towards the totalitarian society that Orwell envisioned. By the way, you should know there's two British film adaptations, !984 (1954)(TV), and 1984 (1956).

Great book. It's like a prophecy into what can come in future times. I wanted to see if anyone else read this and discuss it's meaning. Anyone think we're headed towards a Big Brother society?



This is an extremely political novel, and I wanted to interpret it, so I felt it was best expressed in politics.
btw, author is George Orwell.
