1/4: The Socialist Patriot: George Orwell and War Paperback – January 17, 2023 by Peter Stansky (Author)
https://www.amazon.com/Socialist-Patriot-George-Orwell-War/dp/150363549X
An incisive demonstration of how Orwell's body of work was defined by the four major conflicts that punctuated his life: World War I, the Spanish Civil War, World War II, and the Cold War. Few English writers wielded a pen so sharply as George Orwell, the quintessential political writer of the twentieth century. His literary output at once responded to and sought to influence the tumultuous times in which he lived—decades during which Europe and eventually the entire world would be torn apart by war, while ideologies like fascism, socialism, and communism changed the stakes of global politics.
