George Orwell | “Under the Chestnut Tree, You Betrayed Me, I Betrayed You”

Among the great dystopian trilogies — 1984, We, and Brave New World — Orwell’s 1984 stands out for its haunting darkness and weight. It paints a grim vision of totalitarianism, where humans are alienated into something less than human. 1984 is undoubtedly a masterpiece. Like an alarm bell ringing through a foggy world, it shatters the ice around our hearts with its sharp axe. It reminds us that literature can never be divorced from justice and morality, and that our ultimate pursuit must be freedom and humanity’s radiant light. In the afterword to Animal Farm, Orwell wrote that even after World War II ended, he feared the world would not improve. He was right. Look around today — turmoil still reigns, wars continue, and peace remains a distant dream for many. #Entertainment #Books #DystopianReads #GeorgeOrwell #1984
