George Orwell is one of the 20th century's most influential writers, whose works like Nineteen Eighty-Four and Animal Farm defined modern political satire and dystopian fiction. An outspoken democratic socialist and fierce critic of totalitarianism, his experiences as a colonial police officer, soldier, and journalist deeply informed his unsparing analysis of power.
