What an author (George Orwell in General)
Member Name: Steverudall
Advantages: Incredible Reading Disadvantages: None
Would you not agree with me when I say that George Orwell is probably the best author ever to put pen to paper (excluding Shakespeare). Not just the better known works of 1984 and Animal farm, but even te lesser known works of Burmese Days, and A Clergymans Daughter, prove to be both stunnning insights into the human soul, and also pwerful novels. Burmese Days is a stunning cry for recognition of the cause for abolition of colonialism, and both a touching story of hope and despair. Animal Farm shows the tradgedy and waste of the Russian Revolution and also at a lower level is a beautiful childrens story Summary: |
