How To Read The Book 1984

Tylan McCollum The novel that I choose to write about is something that I believe everyone should take the time to interpret its meaning. The knowledge that this book portrays is the influence that the people in power have over what we interpret as the reality in our own lives. There are many knowledgeable things in this book related to power that influences our actions, including crime, thought/understanding, and hierarchy of society. If I were to state only one thing from this book of the real knowledge, it would have to be that you cannot believe everything you know as knowledge, unless you have experienced and understood that one thing first hand.
