Another writer, Eric Blair, writing under a pseudonym! This is a chance to examine Orwell’s satire on Russian politics which has never been out of print since its publication at the end of World War 11. What is Orwell saying about human nature, power, ‘absolute power’ and why does it still matter today? And why was it so hard for him to get it published?
