Summary:

While the totalitarianism that provoked George Orwell into writing "Nineteen Eighty-Four" seems to be passing into oblivion, his harrowing, cautionary tale of a man trapped in a political nightmare has had the opposite fate, and its relevance and power to disturb our complacency seem to grow decade by decade.
