It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

A natural storyteller and raconteur in his own right - just listen to Paddle Your Own Canoe and Gumption - actor, comedian, carpenter, and all-around manly man Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) brings his distinctive baritone and a fine-tuned comic versatility to Twain's writing. In a knockout performance, he doesn't so much as read Twain's words as he does rejoice in them, delighting in the hijinks of Tom - whom he lovingly refers to as a "great scam artist" and "true American hero".

10 gennaio, anno 705 dalla fondazione di Roma anno 49 prima della nascita di Cristo. I legionari attendono l'ordine di Caio Giulio Cesare celati nell'oscurità, sulle sponde di un fiumiciattolo che segna la frontiera tra il territorio romano e le Gallie. Varcare quel confine in armi significa dichiararsi nemici dell'Urbe, dare inizio alla guerra civile. Quando Cesare pronuncia il comando, intimando al suo esercito di attraversare il Rubicone, lo accompagna con un'espressione divenuta eterna: "Alea iacta est", "Il dado è tratto".

Di tutte le civiltà che esistevano nell'anno Mille, quella dell'Europa occidentale sembrava la peggior candidata per un futuro radioso. Paragonati agli imperi scintillanti di Bisanzio o dell'Islam, i regni frammentati affacciati sull'Atlantico sembravano poveri, impauriti e poco sviluppati. Ma l'anarchia di quegli anni non era il presagio per la fine del mondo, ma la fucina di un ordine radicalmente diverso.

La storia di Roma comincia con uno stupro: è dalla violenza di Marte, dio della guerra, su una giovane vestale, che nascono Romolo e Remo, i fondatori della città.
