I would propose that Brave New

Hence to treat his masterpiece as ill-conceived futurology rather than a work of great literature might

The Difference Between the Methods of Control in 1984 and Brave New World

While 1984's method has real-world precedent and seems more feasible to the modern reader, in the end it boils down to the oppression of a people whose human nature at its very core demands freedom. No amount of dictatorial force can eliminate this
