Explore the writings and ideas of literary legend George Orwell with this handy guide.

George Orwell is considered one of the greatest writers and thinkers of the 20th century, best known for his incisive political critiques in his celebrated novels Animal Farm and 1984. This comprehensive guide explores Orwell's position on the issues that truly mattered to him, including poverty, social class, nationalism, imperialism, political ideologies, and totalitarianism.

In this essential volume, Chris McNab explores these ideas and what light they can shed on the modern world. With each chapter featuring famous quotes from the writer followed by a broader discussion of the great writer's insights, The Pocket Book of Orwell provides an ideal introduction to one of the world's great thinkers.
