George Orwell

The outer archives are busy

by Graham Holderness, Bryan Loughrey, Nahem Yousaf

About this book

The essays in this volume study Orwell's love-hate relationship with England, together with his views on the British Empire, as well as offering new and exciting readings of his classic texts, Nineteen Eighty-Four and Animal Farm. Avoiding the old cliches, the essays offer a provocative and engaged reading of the man and his work in the light of recent developments in literary and critical theory.
