Liderados pelos porcos os bichos estabelecem uma sociedade igualitǭria baseada no Animalismo um sistema de ideias contrǭrio �� tirania dos seres humanos e que na prǭtica garantiria liberdade justi��a e fartura de alimentos a todos. Mas com o passar do tempo as esperan��as de um futuro mais feliz v�o se perdendo. O ideais da rebeli�o s�o corrompidos e depois esquecidos. Os porcos novos donos do poder repetem antigos hǭbitos e aos poucos instauram um novo regime de opress�o. Obra mǭxima de George Orwell 1984 Ǹ um dos livros mais influentes do sǸculo 20. Eternizada pela cr�tica ao totalitarismo e �� usurpa��o dos direitos individuais esta distopia assustadora marcou toda uma gera��o de leitores. Em uma sociedade extremamente regulada e aterrorizada por um regime totalitǭrio Winston Smith se sente encurralado. Funcionǭrio p�blico no MinistǸrio da Verdade onde trabalha alterando documentos para atender aos interesses do Partido ele se v� desiludido com o sistema e com a pr��pria exist�ncia. O desejo de se rebelar porǸm esbarra na constante vigil�ncia das teletelas e no aparato repressivo do governo que transformou a liberdade e a individualidade em crimes e persegue quem ousa desafiar as suas regras. Ao se aventurar em um romance secreto com Julia com quem partilha o desprezo pelo Partido Winston percebe que sua �nsia pela verdade pode se tornar uma possibilidade real de mudan��a. Mas combater o regime n�o serǭ nada fǭcil e o Grande Irm�o cobrarǭ seu pre��o. ALEPH unknown
