Orwell sets up a feeling of a dystopia in his novel 1984 within the first few chapters. It becomes clear that the present society described is very undesirable. With buildings that smell of boiled cabbage and old rug mats which show that the people must live poor and unsanitary lifestyles. As well as telescreens in almost all of the rooms and buildings which make it so that you can be seen every moment of the day allowing you no privacy, big posters with an image of a dictator and a caption saying "Big Brother is watching you" are used to impose the fact that the people are supposedly protected and looked after by this Big Brother figure. The fact that they need posters everywhere to remind the people shows how unsure of their safety the government is. Dreary, gray, cold cities, and wars which involve rocket bombs currently exploding on many populated areas in the country show that the condition of the cities themselves and the government cannot not be very stable. It is established that the lives of the people living in this society cannot be very good or anything like a place we desire to live in today.
The first character that is introduced in a man of about 39 years named Winston Smith. Winston is not in good health, he has a varicose ulcer above his ankle, he gets coughing attacks when he wakes up in the morning, and he needed to rest twice while going up stairs. He had a smallish, frail figure, a meagre body, very fair hair and an unpleasant face. Winston believes he is unique compared to the rest of the population in Oceania because he disagrees with the motives, ideas and actions of "the party" or the political group that leads his country. He believes he is the only person who isn't brainwashed by the party's lies and propaganda, and that the party is trying to control everything that the population does and thinks in order for the citizens to support and fight for their country, no matter what is actually going on outside of their cities.
Winston works in the ministry of truth. This ministry is charged with the responsibility of editing and changing past newspaper articles, books, records, and anything else that contains information of what happened in the past, to fit the current situation. Whether it is if Oceania is at war with Eurasia or Eastasia, a prediction made by Big Brother that has to be changed to fit what actually occurred, or the erasing of a person who was vaporised so that there is no evidence left that they existed.

Great first post. Gets me very interested in the novel, and makes me want to hear more.
Nice job, good writing!
My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr Unity can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Three days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Unity . If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. This is his E-mail: Unityspelltemple@gmail.com .
