1984 brave new world
Both 1984 by George Orwell and Brave New World by Aldous Huxley are seminal dystopian novels that explore themes of totalitarian control, societal manipulation, and the loss of individual freedom.

Loss of Individuality: Personal identity is erased or manipulated in favor of collective conformity.
