Nineteen Eighty-Four is set in Oceania. The elite ruling minority of Oceania is the Inner Party and the party leader is the Big Brother.As the government, the Party controls the population with four ministries: the Ministry of Peace , which deals with war, the Ministry of Plenty, which deals with economic affairs (rationing and starvation),the Ministry of Love , which deals with law and order(torture) and the Ministry of Truth , which deals with propaganda (news, entertainment, education and art). The four ministries have one common purpose, that is, to maintain the absolute authority and leadership of the Big Brother. The author George Orwell makes a prophecy about the vicious development of totalitarianism--- human nature is smothered; freedom is deprived; peoples thoughts are suppressed and people live a extremely poor and monotonous life. What is terrible is that human beings could not tell the good from the evil. After reading this book, you could see the how the author expose, hate and attack the totalitarian.
