Should I read 1984 or White Noise? I want to read a book that is more applicable to current times, and while 1984 sounds relevant I don't know if I want to get into it now.

Never heard of White Noise, but 1984 is pretty damn essential, if for nothing more than the lingo that modern conspirators have adopted.

How else could it have ended? The entire point is that the party wanted to control thought, and if Winston still hated the party in his mind, he was still a rebel. The Party demands orthodoxy not just in action but in thought and instinct.

Brave new world, shorter then 1984 and its more relevant to western world I would guess if you lived in North Korea I would suggest 1984

I didn't like how it turned out the rebellion was fake, I thought it'd be cool if he got a book that explained everything.
