- Description
- George Orwell's iconoclastic novels are now classics of Literary Fiction, Science Fiction, and Satirical Fiction. A master of large-scale allegory, he crafts futuristic, alternate-reality and/or alternative-perspective worlds. His characters' vivid personalities express the best and worst of humanity and its institutions-even when (as in Animal Farm) they are not actually human. Accepted norms and authority figures are revealed as instruments of brutal oppression, designed to keep all power for those who already have it. Lean, evocative prose, grim tone, and thought-provoking content typify these cautionary tales. Start with: Nineteen Eighty-Four
