Explanation:

"Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. is a satire that depicts a dystopian society in the future depicted according to science fictions. The narrator tells about the main protagonist Harrison Bergerson who is physically and mentally superior to others. In order for the people to be all equal, the government made him wear disguises. Concealing his real being is their way of enforcing equality and its policies among all people. Written from an unseen narrator, the story is a satirizing of the ways people would go to extreme lengths just to be deemed equal.
