Nineteen Eighty-Four

Style and Technique

Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell is written in the dystopian genre. The style is characterized by simple, clear language that the author uses to convey complex ideas and concepts. Orwell masterfully employs irony, satire, and allegory to express his critique of totalitarianism, thought manipulation, and truth distortion. The narrative structure revolves around the life of the protagonist, Winston Smith, in the state of Oceania, where everything is controlled by the Party. The novel is divided into three parts, following Winston's internal awakening, his struggle, and subsequent suppression. The language of the work is rich with neologisms and terms (such as "Newspeak," "Big Brother," "Doublethink"), creating a unique atmosphere of oppression and control.
