1984
De graphic novelDe Franse tekenaar Xavier Coste (Normandië, 1989) weet op een angstaanjagende en suggestieve manier nog meer betekenis te geven aan dit meesterwerk van George Orwell. In het Engeland van na de Koude Oorlog werkt Winston Smith, continu bewaakt door camera’s, spionnen en buren, aan het herschrijven van de geschiedenis. Maar hij voelt zich daar niet prettig bij en besluit op een dag om een dagboek bij te houden op een plek waar hij niet in de gaten gehouden wordt. Winnaar van de Prix Albert Uderzo 2021!

Keep the Aspidistra Flying

1984
In un mondo dominato dal Partito, dove ogni gesto è sorvegliato e ogni parola può diventare una colpa, la libertà non è solo negata: è stata riscritta, svuotata, resa impensabile. La verità non esiste più e il passato è una materia malleabile, continuamente riscritta per adattarsi alle esigenze del potere. Winston Smith proprio a questo lavora. Il suo compito è cancellare tracce, correggere documenti, rendere il presente eterno e infallibile. Ma sotto l'apparente obbedienza cresce il dubbio: e se la realtà fosse altro? E se ricordare fosse già un atto di ribellione? Nel pericoloso tentativo di recuperare una verità personale, Winston scopre che il controllo più profondo non passa solo attraverso la violenza, ma piuttosto attraverso il linguaggio, la memoria e il desiderio. Romanzo politico, distopia, ma anche indagine spietata sulla psicologia del potere, 1984 mostra come un sistema totalitario non si limiti a dominare i corpi, ma ambisca a plasmare le coscienze. Il Grande Fratello non chiede soltanto obbedienza: pretende amore. A distanza di decenni 1984 continua a interrogarci con una forza inquietante, ricordandoci che la libertà non si perde all'improvviso, ma può essere erosa parola dopo parola. Uno degli incubi più lucidi e persistenti della letteratura del Novecento.

Animal Farm
George Orwell (1903-1950) was the pseudonym of Eric Arthur Blair, novelist, essayist and journalist. Orwell was born in Bengal and educated in England. In 1922, he joined the Imperial Police in Burma (now Myanmar), serving for five years before his mounting dislike for imperialism induced him to resign. He returned to a series of ill-paid jobs in Paris, then London, living in fairly severe poverty, before becoming a regular contributor to The Adelphi from 1930. His first book, Down and Out in Paris and London (1933), described these early experiences and was followed by Burmese Days (1934), a novel which reflected his indignation towards political injustice. Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) remain his most popular works. George Orwell died of tuberculosis.
