1984 was an excellent novel, and I would have to say it was definitely worth the read. Orwell uses foreshadowing and irony very well throughout the book. The foreshadowing is shown with Winston's dream about meeting O'Brien. Orwell uses irony in the sense that it is ironic that Winston's beleied O'Brien to be on his side, when in fact he had always been working against him. When Winston and Julia are captured and arrested it is O'Brien who is ochestrsting their torture.
