A Critique of George Orwell's "1984"
Balance is key
"1984" has one glaring aspect that lies in its relentless bleakness, which at times can overshadow the depth of its social commentary.

I have shared four children's books written by A.A. Milne and his very best friend. He wrote all these stories for his son Christopher Robin.

There are some friendships real and imaginary that last a lifetime and this friendship is one of them.
