OK, some think this book wasn't prophetic. Actually folks, Orwell described the world after WW3, the so called "age of the Antichrist". So, it is prophetic. These things are yet to come full scale, although we have seen some remarkable manifestations already in the 20-th century.
I probably won't be alive to see it but some of you will.
