In a world where nothing is certain and everyone betrays you, Winston, O’Brien and Julia are caught as pawns in a net cast by the harshest of political worlds. As he is tortured in the Ministry of Love, Winston tells his story – but are we listening to the real truth or merely hearing from an unreliable narrator?

With its predictions of globalisation, surveillance paranoia and control through language, George Orwell’s classic futuristic political tale is acutely relevant for our time.
