This is one title in a series of short, illustrated biographies.
They tell the stories of those who have shaped our present and our
past, from Beethoven to Dietrich, from Einstein to Churchill.
George Orwell (1903-1949) wrote seminal reportage on the conditions
of the poor - such as "Down and Out in Paris and London" and "The
Road to Wigan Pier" - and was one of the first critics to write
seriously about popular culture. During his last years he turned to
allegory and fantasy to produce "Animal Farm" and "Nineteen
Eighty-Four", the two books that were to make him world famous.
Politically provocative, after his death he became an icon both for
the left and the right at the cost of obscuring the realities of
his achievements.
