George Orwell's story is about how capitalism values love and compassion. Gordon Comstock is against this idea and tries to fight it, but he eventually fails. He never really understands what he is fighting against and can't seem to accept it.

I think we should be kind to each other and not do things that would hurt our friends or family. We should be supportive of each other and help each other out. Let's not be too hard on ourselves or others, even if we don't always agree.

George Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm are both books that criticize Stalinism, but not socialism or anti-socialism. He is accused of cheating and being jealous, which is seen as a large commitment to the British Secret Service. People have not believed in the dedication of the agent or their claims until they read the book.

Although reading the ending of a book can be calming, it is still a sad experience. Even the dark and powerful book 1984 is one of the most beautiful and impressive books I have ever read. It is amazing what can be expressed through the written word.
