2084: The End of the World

George Orwell's 1984 inspired Boualem Sansal's 2084: La Fin du Monde

Boualem Sansal is a French-Algerian writer currently imprisoned in Algeria for opposing the government.

2084 has been translated in English ; 2084: The End of the World.

Author : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boualem_Sansal

Book : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2084:_The_End_of_the_World

"Abistan, a vast empire, takes its name from the prophet Abi, Yölah's sole "delegate" on earth. His system is based on a collective amnesia and submission to the one God."

Worth reading IMHO
