The action takes place in London, one of the main cities of the totalitarian super -state oceania. A frighteningly detailed description of a society based on fear and oppression, serves as a background for one of the most striking human stories in world literature. In the center of the plot, the fate of a small party-dissident Winston Smith and his dangerous romance with a colleague.
In the USSR, the book of Orwell was banned until 1989: probably, the country"s party leadership recognized the features of the Soviet system in the public system of oceania. However, the society described by Orwell is not a copy of the totalitarian regimes known to him. “1984” is now being read as an acute commentary on current events.
