Obra máxima de George Orwell, 1984 é um dos livros mais influentes do século 20. Eternizada pela crítica ao totalitarismo e à usurpação dos direitos individuais, esta distopia assustadora marcou toda uma geração de leitores. Em uma sociedade extremamente regulada e aterrorizada por um regime totalitário, Winston Smith se sente encurralado. Funcionário público no Ministério da Verdade, onde trabalha alterando documentos para atender aos interesses do Partido, ele se vê desiludido com o sistema e com a própria existência. O desejo de se rebelar, porém, esbarra na constante vigilância 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 ânsia pela verdade pode se tornar uma possibilidade real de mudança. Mas combater o regime não será nada fácil, e o Grande Irmão cobrará seu preço.
