"1984" is a satire according to Orwell’s biographer
Bernard Crick (Orwell biographer) analyses "1984" as a satire of contemporary society by George Orwell and not as a prophecy. He compares it to Jonathan Swift ("Gulliver’s Travels"): "The author does not make predictions. As in "Gulliver’s Travels", he describes a cartoon of our society".
