Deviates are corrected for their own good.

In a society that has eliminated many imbalances, surplus goods, and even class struggles, there are bound to be deviates; Winston Smith is one of those. He starts, due to his inability to doublethink, with thought crime. This is in a society that believes the thought is as real as the deed. Eventually, he graduates through a series of misdemeanors to illicit s-e-x and even plans to overthrow the very government that took him in as an orphan. If he gets caught, he will be sent to the "Ministry of Love," where they have a record of 100% cures for this sort of insanity. They will even forgive his past indiscretions. Be sure to watch the three major movies made from this book: 1984 (1954) Peter Cushing is Winston Smith 1984 (1956) Edmond O'Brien is Winston Smith Nineteen Eighty-Four (1984) John Hurt is Winston Smith
