George Orwell was a much-respected English novelist, who wrote some of the finest pieces in literary criticism, fiction. Orwell's work is known for its simplicity and wit. He wrote with smartness on subjects such as anti-fascism, democratic socialism etc. His best works include 'ANIMAL FARM'. It's an allegorical novella. It got published in August 1945. The fiction based on Farm animals, the author has named them too.

Such as Major (a majestic-looking pig), 3-dogs (Bluebell, Jessie, and Pincher), many hens, pigeons, ducklings, sheep and cows. Two horses, Boxer and Clover. Amongst them, Major is their leader. He wanted to speak on 'the nature of life on this earth' and 'How any animal is now living'. The author has nicely elaborated through these Characters about the animals' misery and slavery. Animals complain that despite their hard labour, why then do they continue in the miserable condition?

They also complain about human beings that they use to steal nearly the whole of their produce. Their main enemy is - Man. So, remove Man from the scene and the root cause of hunger and overwork will be abolished for ever. The book narrates about the agony of ill-treated farm animals. Then what decision they take and how this Animal Farm born, everything has become very interesting. The ultimate satire on fascism. A must-read book. ‘A Wise, Compassionate, and Illuminating Fable for our Times’ - THE NEW YORK TIMES ‘Orwell’s Satire is Amply Broad, Cleverly Conceived, and Delightfully Written’ - SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE‘ Absolutely First-Rate.

1984

George Orwell is the pen name of the author, Eric Arthur Blair. He was an English essayist, novelist, journalist and criti. His writings are based on social criticism, anti-Fascism, anarchism and support to democratic Socialism. His work remains influential in popular culture and political culture. '1984', a novel, is based on dystopian social science. Its theme is projected on the consequences of mass surveillance, totalitarianism and societal behaviour aspect.

The author had been a democratic socialist. Mostly, the novel narrates the truth and facts within politics and how come these are manipulated. The author has narrated in on imaginary manner when most of the parts of the world has fallen victim to perpetual war, global mass surveillance, historical nogationism. A huge, propaganda is there. The story reveals that Great Britain, known as Arstri One, has become a province of totalitarian super state named Okeania.

The leader of the party is Big Brother. Actually, it's a cult of personality and arises anyone uses the techniques of mass media, social networking, government organised demonstrations and rallies to create an image of a leader. It is often seen in totalitarian or authorisation states. Winston Smith is a protagonist, who is very skilful and outer party member and hates the Party and dreams of rebellion. His relationship with Julia has also come up. '1984' has become a classic literacy example of political and dystopian fiction. 'Time' magazine included this novel on its 100-best English-language novels.

Although, Orwell was hesitating for this title but Warbury (the Publisher) suggested this which he took to be a more commercially viable choice. The story behind its title is also very interesting, when Orwell finished this novel in 1948, this title was chosen simply as the inversion of this year. So, at last, in the story, there is a celebration of massive victory of Okeania's over Eurasian armies in Africa. Also, Winston accepted that he loves Big Brother. How this happened? What were the circumstances Winston refused to love Julia? How this political storm took place? For all, the story reveals step by step in an interesting manner. A mind-blowing novel of that time and forever.
