About this audiobook
George Orwell didn’t just write fiction; he issued a warning that rings louder every year. Believing that "clear language is essential for political freedom," Orwell waged a lifelong war against totalitarianism and the corruption of objective truth.
In this political and literary analysis, you will dissect:
The Radicalization: How poverty in Paris and policing in Burma shaped his hatred of authority.
The Betrayal: Witnessing the Stalinist purges in Spain that birthed his anti-totalitarian worldview.
Language as a Weapon: Why sloppy grammar leads to sloppy thinking and political manipulation.
The Revolution Betrayed: The historical allegory behind Animal Farm.
The Final Warning: 1984, Newspeak, and the terrifying concept of "Doublethink."
Understand the mechanics of the surveillance state and why the truth is under attack.
