Just the beginning


davinciinstitute.com


I've just started reading this book. In the beginning of the book it talks about the main character Winston Smith and he's in this staircase and he see's this picture with an eye with a caption saying "Big Brother is Watching You."  Winston has his back turned toward the picture, because he knows someones watching. No matter where you are in your house, at work, friends house, or even out in the street someone is always watching. To me that would just freak me out and would make me not want to say anything to anyone. I haven't read much of the book, but it's interesting so far. It's a the type of book where it just starts right on in on what it's about.

1984

The book I choose was 1984 by George Orwell. Its about how the government monitors everyones every move and how much the government controls everything.
