The seemingly insignificant man, Winston Smith works for the government. His job is to change the records, to change history, to rewrite the events of our past. Eventually, he can’t stand it and begins a rebellion that leads him into torture and all kinds of other trouble.

In this futuristic novel, Guy Montag is a "fireman" who burns books for the government. Anyone caught with books is in violation of the law and subject to punishment. Fortunately, some people refuse to let books disappear forever.

The United States government tries to create the perfect society by making people work the jobs they assign and controlling the technology.

The government is cloning people and producing hundreds of twins for scientific growth and research. That can’t be good!

Everything and everyone is the same in Jonas’s community. That’s the best way to make sure no one gets hurt. The community leaders choose everything for you – your name, your family, your job, your hobbies, your world. But what happens when someone wants more than the same?

Each year, the government “reaps” 2 teens from each District to have the honor of competing in the Hunger Games. The problem is only one person will make it out alive. This is the government’s way of keeping the people under control and in fear.
