(Yeah, that picture, because he is soo creative, it's only half of him)
After reading this AMAZING book, I wanted to know a little bit about the AMAZING author who wrote the book. So, I wanted to share it with you guys, because maybe you will feel the same way.
George Orwell
June 25 1905 - January 21 1950 (Age 46)
This real name is Eric Arthur Blair but he is well known as George Orwell (pen name). He is an English novelist and journalist. He is known to write about awareness of social injustice. Eric was born on June 25 in Motihari, Bihar, Bengal Presidency, British India and moved to England when he was one.
Throughout his lifetime, he moved to all different places like London and Paris!
Orwell died at the age of 46 because of tuberculosis which he described in Down and Out in Paris and London (So, if you are interested, read it.). He was in and out of the hospitals for three years. ):
If you liked his books, here are some other books he wrote.
-Animal Farm (1945)
-His Homage to Catalonia (1938)
-Down and Out in London and Paris
-Coming up for air

I wonder if he was still alive and he had the chance to write a new book that is a continuation of 1984? I think if he had the chance to he should... the continuation of 1984, how cool would that be?
