Adam Cooper, one of the main characters, is a fifteen year old who lives with his family in Lexington, Massachusetts.

Not only does Adam get watched over , but his father questions whether or not his son is a man or not. This effects where and what he does. An example of this is when Adam wishes to attend a Township Committee meeting on April 18th , but he didn't go because his father didn't want him to. Since his father is very hard on him, he always relies on his Grandmother to make him feel better. Instead of going to the meeting, Adam goes to see his neighbor and second cousin, Ruth Simmons, she is the woman Adam can see marrying in the future, he loves her.

    1984 is about a parallel world 35 years into the future, in which all nations have been combined into three major countries: Oceania, Eastasia, and Eurasia. London still exists, but it is now a part of Oceania, governed by an entity called the Party, headed by a dominant figure called "Big Brother". The Party's one goal is power; power over everybody and everything in Oceania. There is constant surveillance; devices called telescreens are put in people's homes to monitor thoughts, actions and broadcast Party propaganda continuously, with no way for the person to turn it off or change the channel. Free thinkers are not tolerated, and the "Thought Police" are sent to capture the culprits. The Party is developing an official language called "Newspeak," whose goal is to simplify language by eliminating as many "extra" words as possible and reducing vocabulary to a small number of basic words, thus narrowing the range of thought.…
