The theme of the book is the monster that is born when the state become all powerful.

Answer 2

Gaps which mystify us, we sometimes marvel over, and even get involved in research going deeper into the real past, historical or otherwise, until we find out for our self what was.

With this in mind you have a better understanding of the story.

I read the book and got so many opinions from others who read it, mine did not matter. So!

We live in a time, before which mankind had been a super power of mind, creativity, and construction.

1984 is a piece of work which is a part of the Archaeological puzzle. It is written as a fiction, since most of the facts known could not be connected with historical references to verify the finds. Not yet, anyway.

Finds which connect belongings to people history and their passions.

Indiana Jones may be a far fetched adventurer, and yet, several of the filming sites which were in the movies exist. Just as many of the artifacts exist and can be seen in Museums.

Artifacts which are connected to the ways of our ancestors.
This leaves some of us with foot paths to the past. So do the finds of Archaeology lead us to understand nothing about the people until we put the pieces together and fill in the gaps.

If you have read the book 1984 and found facts, some that are given names of real states, cities, and town you are reading a fiction about the rest. There may be fictitious additions of names for people, fictitious names of stature, buildings addresses, and historical references.

Yet, there are a few that are facts the author could not leave out if the wanted the reader to find any credibility to keep their interest in the fiction novel.

1984 is a fiction, not a non-fiction. Entertaining, and yet, tantalizing because it holds some icons of truth in it. It is up to the reader, 'you' to decided whether you want to find those icons and learn the facts about them.

Answer 3

You weren't exactly living under a rock to be feeling that way if you lived in Europe after the second world war. Society had been ripped apart and it seemed like the bad guys were winning and in at least one case, a "good guy" called the Soviet Union turned out to be bad. Personally I feel 1984 could be a documentation of Iran or North Korea, the way they are today.

Answer 4

I thought it was about despair. he represents the people, they could have changed their fate if they wanted, but no one cared about their govt...same as today. it could still happen. It was a warning. And as far as winston goes...his fate was inevitable from the start, just like ours. Life isnt a fairytale.

Answer 5

it's a novel of despair and warning-- winston's fate is inevitable from the start.

Answer 6

I think there are many meanings to this book and each individual person will gleam their own opinions based on your own life experiences. It is a GREAT book. Read it - it is well worth the read.

Answer 7

I would consider it a warning.

BEWARE: This is what could happen if we let it.

I read the book and was shocked at how similar my government was to the superpowers in the book.
