George Orwell, Fido Nesti - 1984 (A Novela Gráfica)

In the year 1984, London is a bleak city, where the Thought Police oppressively monitor every aspect of citizens’ lives. The gravest crime of all is to have a free mind.

Winston Smith is a cog in this perverse machine, and his job is to rewrite history to match the Party’s official version of events. That is, until he begins to question the truth behind the repressive system. Driven by a longing for freedom and truth, he risks everything—falling in love with a colleague, the beautiful Julia, and rebelling against the ruling power. Originally published in 1949, George Orwell’s most powerful work is adapted for the first time into a graphic novel, illustrated by Brazilian artist Fido Nesti, who masterfully captures the faces, bodies, and settings of a world that is becoming less and less difficult to imagine.
