Set in 1930s London, the novel explores Gordon Comstock's struggle against societal values centered on wealth and status. Through his satirical lens, Orwell exposes the bleak realities of the "money-world," revealing the futility of Gordon's rebellion. As he navigates his dismal life, it becomes clear that his extreme rejection of materialism leads him to become a flawed figure rather than a hero. The narrative delves into the complexities of radicalism and the personal consequences of resisting societal norms.
