noun. The definition of a dystopia is an imaginary place where the state of being is very bad or oppressive, the opposite of a utopia. An example of a dystopia is the world imagined in The Handmaidâs Tale by Margaret Atwood.
Dystopian is the exact opposite â it describes an imaginary society that is as dehumanizing and as unpleasant as possible. George Orwell's Animal Farm, for example, describes a dystopian society in which Napoleon, a pig, represents Joseph Stalin in a farmyard satire on Stalinist Russia and how power corrupts. Other famous dystopian authors include Aldous Huxley, Kurt Vonnegut, and Ray Bradbury.
