जॉर्ज ऑरवेल

जॉर्ज ऑरवेल (1903-1950) को अंग्रेज़ी भाषा के सर्वाधिक चर्चित लेखकों में से एक थे। ‘बर्मीज डेज़’, ‘एनिमल फ़ार्म’ और ‘1984’ उनके प्रतिनिधि उपन्यास हैं। उनके कथेतर गद्य को भी काफ़ी सराहा गया। उन्होंने अपने समय-समाज की राजनीतिक और वैचारिक हलचलों को जिस गहरी नज़र से देखा-परखा वैसा बहुत कम देखने में आता है। सत्ता तंत्र और साम्राज्यवाद की बारीक़ आलोचना उनके लेखन की उल्लेखनीय विशेषता है।
