Description
Eric Blair's life remains an enigma, despite his iconic status in western political thought. This biography draws on previously unseen material to offer a strikingly human portrait of the writer.
D J Taylor sheds new light on a man who stage-managed his own life with chilling detachment and warmth, combining disillusionment with hope. Through illness and personal struggle, Blair produced two of the greatest masterpieces of the twentieth century.
