- Summary
- "From the playing fields of Eton College to the slums of Wigan and the battlefields of the Spanish Civil War, George Orwell led a unique life that found expression in a prose style of uncompromising brilliance. Stephen Ingle captures this range of social experience and political vision in this fascinating new study, showing that although Orwell is often read as a socialist, he is best understood as a moralist and imaginative writer. This new reading, supported by detailed and thorough analysis, enables the reader to explore key topics."--Jacket
