Londres, 1984. Un monde ternaire : Eurasia, Estasia, Océania. Une liberté d’expression bannie. Un passé révu et corrigé en fonction des désirs du Parti. Voilà planté le cadre sinistre dans lequel Winston, un employé du ministère de la Vérité en Océania, est chargé de veiller à ce que les traces de l'alliance passée entre l'Océania et l'Estasia n'existent plus. Mais cette amnésie fabriquée lui pèse de plus en plus, les mensonges du Parti le rongent de l’intérieur. Bien que tout plaisir soit banni, et que les relations soient contrôlées, sa rencontre avec Julia va le pousser vers la dissidence... Écrit en 1948, publié en 1949, le célèbre 1984 de George Orwell s’est affirmé au fil du temps comme un monument de la littérature mondiale du vingtième siècle.

Traduit par Clémentine Vacherie, préfacé par Jean-David Haddad, il est illustré par Yoann Laurent-Rouault, Maître diplômé des Beaux-Arts de Rennes.

Découvrez vite le nouveau visage de Big Brother, celui de Julia, et le plus surprenant : celui de Goldstein...
