George Orwell

reader reviews (12 Comments)
George Orwell, pseudonym of the writer Eric Arthur Blair, was born in the city of Motihari, in what was then British India, on June 25, 1903, having moved to England with his family while still a child. Writer and journalist, Orwell is one of the most influential figures in twentieth-century literature. An unconditional defender of human freedom and a staunch opponent of totalitarianism, he entered the literary scene with the works Burmese Days (1934) and Homage to Catalonia (1938). But it will undoubtedly be with Quinta dos Animais (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), two narratives with an astonishing topicality, that the author achieves international recognition. He died of tuberculosis in London on January 21, 1950.
