"Nineteen Eighty-Four"
From my top 5 book list,
In 1984, George Orwell warns of the terrifying dangers that man may create for himself in his quest for a utopian society. It warns that people might believe that everyone must become slaves to the government in order to have an orderly society, but at the expense of the freedom of the people. It is a dystopian novel about the totalitarian regime of the Party, mind control and the struggle of Winston Smith against the elite figure called Big Brother.
Since the publication of Nineteen Eighty-Four, the term "Big Brother" has entered the lexicon as a synonym for abuse of government power, particularly in respect to civil liberties.
"WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH"
- a slogan of the Party (Quote from 1984)
