i've already read animal farm, 1984, catch 22 and fahrenheit 451 and i am DESPERATELY hungry for this type of literature. it's so shockingly similar to modern day

I don't read alot of non-fiction personally, but Neuromancer stands as one of (if not, the) most influencial dystopian books in recent memory. It basically invented the whole cyberpunk genre

give 'Brave New World' a try. or even 'The Handmaid's Tale', 'The Road', 'The Man in the High Castle', or 'One'. to name a few.
