| contents | <p>Everyone who studied <em>Nineteen Eighty-Four</em> by George Orwell and <em>The Fat Man in History</em> by Peter Carey strikes a balance between both. Orwell’s novel and Carey’s short story help the reader to get some definitions straight. They both demonstrate a terrifying vision of totalitarian expectations that make people slaves of a tyrannical regime. Both of the stories are relevant to today’s dictator regimes which nip every movement in the bud. Their protagonists take work in hand to make changes. They up against social disorder by putting the reader’s thinking cap on to see what ideas they can come up with, and always the result is rebellion. They use their loaf but buckle down to play problems down, bury the past and make a bright future. Despite being accessible and bestseller books, these works are proceeding moral issues of having a will of iron to stamp out the root and branch of injustice. Both the stories teach that life is not roses all the way, but society members must go through fire and water to be free of the yoke of totalitarianism.</p> |
