Während die ersten beiden Teile von Nineteen Eighty-Four noch äußerst spannend das Überleben und den Kampf gegen einen fiktiven diktatorischen Überwachungsstaat zeigen, verliert sich die Geschichte im dritten Teil ausschließlich in den brutalen Foltermethoden, die der Protagonist nach seiner Verhaftung über sich ergehen lassen muss.
