Thisbook teaches us that the more oblivious we are about the manipulation and idealoigy the government is feeding us, the more likely they will have total control over our lives, and independance.

We can learn from Winston that we should be careful on who we trust and the actions we partake in.

The message the author is trying to teach us is that we have less control of our lives than we think, and that there are more problems going on that weare completely oblivious to.

Orwell's overall purpose of writing this book is to teach us a lesson on how we need to be more aware of our surrounding and the people around us.

Why You Should or Shouldn't Read this Book

# data[].attributes.body
People should read this book to be more aware of how our government watches us and what the future could become. However you should not read this book because it it incredibly boring and kind of twisted to some extent, but that is just my opinion. I like some ray of hope in novels like these but this one did not provide that.

Personally, I did not like the novel I thought it would be more exciting and thrilling and it was the exact opposite. It was very bland and lacked flavor. However I did like the overalllesson the novel was trying to teach.

1. Independence

2. Rebellion

This article is about the Nazi Youth Program that was present during Nazi Germany. It connects to 1984 because the theme of the NaziYouth Program' ideaology and actions towards it's members are similar to those displayed in 1984. In the Youth Program,  children were manipulated to believing the worng things, just as the citizens in Oceania were by Big Brother. Another similar theme is that the children in the program had very little control on their own independance in the future, because they were trained to become mothers of future Germans and Nazi soldiers, similar to how the people in the Party had no complete control on their independance,.
