I’m very divided with 1984. It’s context is so massively anti-communist, yet it ironically portrayed much of the authoritarianism we see today in capitalist countries. So much so that when I first read it in my teens, it didn’t cross my mind that he was taking shots at old Russia! I find it to be one of those few things that are better when you interpret it wrong.
