Authors studied the wonders of scientific and technological progress and imagined worlds that had developed even greater advances. Jules Vernes' and H.G. Wells' fantastic tales well whetted the public's appetite for adventure tales.

Adaptación de Gracia Querejeta do clásico da literatura A revolta dos animais do escritor británico George Orwell. Esta novela satírica, publicada orixinariamente en 1945, é unha representación alegórica da Revolución Rusa de 1917 e a posterior Unión Soviética.
