Dystopian Novels

"Dystopia is defined as a society characterized by a focus on mass poverty, squalor, suffering, or oppression. Most authors of dystopian fiction explore at least one reason why things are that way, often as an analogy for similar issues in the real world." This here is a definition of Dystopian Fiction from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dystopian_novel#Dystopian_fiction

During the first chapter, George Orwell created a World in which they are constantly under watch by someone which they named Big Brother. If found that it was extremely Dystopian as when the main character of this novel (Winston), returns back to his house after a days work in the Government, finding posters covered all of his house reading "Big Brother is Watching You". The novel 1984 instantly gave me the feeling of Dictatorship in Winston's life.

Throughout the chapters, winston writes in his diary of how he would like to be free from the world that he lives in, however this is not too great as if he is caught with this and it is read, he will be killed. In other words he is giving himself more work.
