Selections Orwell on truth / George Orwell ; [Author of introduction Hochschild, Adam] Boston : Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2018. xviii, 197 pages ; 19 cm text txt rdacontent unmediated n rdamedia volume nc rdacarrier "Over the course of his career, George Orwell wrote about many things, but no matter what he wrote the goal was to get at the fundamental truths of the world. He had no place for dissemblers, liars, conmen, or frauds, and he made his feelings well-known. In Orwell on Truth, excerpts from across Orwell's career show how his writing and worldview developed over the decades, profoundly shaped by his experiences in the Spanish Civil War, and further by World War II and the rise of totalitarian states. In a world that seems increasingly like one of Orwell's dystopias, a willingness to speak truth to power is more important than ever. With Orwell on Truth, readers get a collection of both powerful quotes and the context for them."-- Provided by publisher. Orwell, George, 1903-1950 Political and social views.
