In: Politics & society, Band 15, Heft 1986-87
ISSN: 0032-3292
Interprets the text of Orwell's last book Nineteen Eighty-Four. Shows what Orwell had in mind when he outlined it, sketches his political and theoretical positions and tries to account for why the political and analytic lessons of the novel undermined those he was offering in his essay and journalism. Orwell complained his political views were distorted by the book's reviewers. (JLN)
