1. Bio of George Orwell
George Orwell was awell-known modern British writer, essayist, social critic, and political commentator
who lived from 1903 to 1950. In the twentieth century, he was regarded as one of the two most brilliant
comedy writers in English literature. Orwell had an almost seventeen-year writing career. Despite the fact
that Orwell did not consider himself a novelist, he authored two of the twentieth century's most famous
literary works: Animal Farm and 1984. While they are his most well-known books, his memoirs, other
novels, and major work as an essayist all add to the body of work that makes up significant twentieth-
century literature. Orwell's writing was a search for truth. Even his fiction contains elements of his
surroundings, such as the wars and battles he observed, the awful nature of politics, and the dreadful toll
despotism exacts on the human soul. Orwell wished to portray the hardships of "genuine" people, to live
among the less fortunate, and to tell their experiences from the moment he began writing at the age of
twenty-four. Orwell has stated about his own writing that he writes because he has a truth to reveal or a
fact to which he wishes to call attention.
