It
is certain that all of us have heard quite a good deal about George Orwell's
eerily prescient novel "1984" and its uncanny predictions about the
world which at the time of his writing was decades in the future. I have
recently finished listening to the book and in truth some of the things it has to
say about society and how it would devolve into a mesh of contradictions are
amazingly accurate. One may be tempted to think that Orwell was some sort of
prophet, but it doesn't take a prophet to understand where the world is headed.
