Animal Farm and 1984 -- George Orwell, Hardcover
This edition features two of George Orwell's best known novels, cornerstones of dystopian fiction -- 1984 and Animal Farm -- with an introduction by Christopher Hitchens.
In 1984, London is a grim city in a world of pervasive government surveillance, where Big Brother is always watching you and the Thought Police can practically read your mind. Winston Smith joins a secret revolutionary organization called The Brotherhood, dedicated to the destruction of the Party. Together with his beloved Julia, he hazards his life in a deadly match against the powers that be.
Animal Farm is Orwell's classic political satire of the Russian Revolution -- an account of the bold struggle, initiated by the animals, that transforms Mr. Jones's Manor Farm into Animal Farm--a wholly democratic society built on the credo that All Animals Are Created Equal. But are they?
