‘To the future or to the past, to a time when thought is free, when men are different from one another and do not live alone — to a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone: From the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of doublethink — greetings!’ In Orwell’s novel Nineteen Eighty-Four members of the party are constantly monitored by devices know as ‘telescreens’ which can broadcast directly to them personally at any moment.
