When George Orwell wrote 1984 he didn't intend to frighten his readers, just warn them what evils the future can hold. There's always someone called Big Brother watching. No one knows exactly who or what Big Brother is, only that he exists, and anyone who attempts to defy him will be tortured and annihilated by his enforcers, the Thought Police. Even with this knowledge, Winston Smith and his companion, Julia, strive to resist the Thought Police and rid the world of Big Brother and his dehumanizing power.
