About This Novel
This is a post-war virtual world in which the world is divided into three totalitarian empires with the same nature and attacking each other - Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia. London, England, became the capital of a province of Oceania and became part of a huge autocratic machine. People worship Big Brother, the leader of Oceania, and children spontaneously form teams to monitor and report their parents; people with heretical ideas can disappear quietly at any time; supplies are extremely scarce, but senior party members can enjoy them without restrictions; published reports can be revised at any time; sexual desire is severely suppressed, because sex and love are not exempted. It is controlled by ideology; the state maintains the operation of society with the personality worship of leaders and hatred of enemies at home and abroad; the Thought Police is everywhere, and you never know whether the stranger you pass on the street corner is a spy; what's more terrible is that there is an iron curtain of surveillance hanging in your bedroom, living room, on the road, in the elevator... Everywhere.
