really liked it

A fascinating study of one of the great writers of the 20th century. Often heralded as a man of the left, the brutal satirisation of socialism in his most famous works of course dispel this notion. One is rather left with the impression of Orwell as an atheist in search of a secular morality. An interesting and absorbing analysis of a great literary figure. Recommended.
