"Oppressive Overlord"

Whether you've read the book, seen the film, or none of the above, you're probably familiar with George Orwell's sci-fi classic, 1984. At some point or another, we've all heard mention of the ominous phrase, "Big Brother is watching you," and instantly recognize the Draconian terror it inspires in one's heart and imagination.

I've been reading the book in small chunks here and there, for the past few years. And the further the protagonist strays from the path of a mindless drone, the more I keep expecting the Thought Police to kick down MY door and arrest me for reading the tale! I've never enjoyed a more paranoia-inducing piece of fiction.
