O'Brien (Nineteen Eighty-Four)
O'Brien (known as O'Connor in the 1956 film adaptation of the novel) is a fictional character and the main antagonist in George Orwell's 1949 novel ''Nineteen Eighty-Four''. The protagonist Winston Smith, living in a dystopian society governed by the Party, feels strangely drawn to Inner Party member O'Brien. Orwell never reveals O'Brien's first name.

They were designed as a follow-on from the British Porpoise-class submarine, ''Porpoise'' class; physical dimensions were the same but stronger materials were used in hull construction and improved equipment was fitted.
