Angebote / Angebote:
George Orwell never came to America, he published five books before fighting in the Spanish Civll War against Franco. Shot in the neck by a sniper, he came within a fraction of an inch of dying on the spot. Returning to England he published Homage to Catalonia, his experiences in Spain, then Animal Farm, the Russian Revolution in fable form, then 1984, his masterpiece, while battling tuberculosis.1984 was instantly judged a classic and has remained so to this day.By now, 70 years on, his never-to-be-believed dystopic science fictiion is accepted as fact.America has gone 'way past all his warnings and, in one recent area, become involved in a horrific national debacle which Orwell -- or his Big Brother -- couldn't have dreamed of.
