By Scott Lucas
George Orwell, author of 'Animal Farm' and '1984', has become an icon for both the Left and the Right. This perceptive biography restores a sense of balance to his achievements. His formidable powers of observation not only stripped bare the colonidal life, wars and poverty he experienced at first hand, but also made him one of the first critics to write seriously about popular culture, before ensuring his ultimate reputation as the creator of Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty Four.
Scott Lucas is Head of American and Canadian Studies at the University of Birmingham.
