: i need help answering this question - "why do so many authors have such a negative vision of the future?" (as exemplified by Anthony Burgess' - "A Clockwork Orange", Margaret Atwood's - "The Handmaid's Tale", and "1984" by George Orwell.)
: if anyone could give me any insights or any themes/points to explore, i'd be really grateful for the help!
