View in Radio Times

Stephen Potter introduces George Orwell 's '1984,' the most recent story of the future, published last year.
'1984' shows a future more dismal even than 'Brave New World.' But Orwell sees the dangers not so much in science as in war, mass organisation, and the loss of all freedom.
