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.

Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two equals four. If you can get this freedom, everything else will fall into place.
