GEORGE ORWELL ILLUSTRATED
David N. Smith
Illustrations by Mike Mosher
Haymarket Books (Spring 2018, world English rights)
Trade Paper • ISBN-13: 9781608467839 • 192 pgs.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
George Orwell is one of the most celebrated of all 20th-century literary figures, yet he is frequently misunderstood, largely because his expositors have seldom fully grasped his sophisticated left-wing anti-Stalinism. This illustrated narrative is uniquely accessible and provides the insight needed to understand Orwell, with the same kind of light touch that Orwell himself adored.
PRAISE:
“An outstanding introduction of George Orwell’s politics that has certainly stood the test of time, and the artwork is tremendous.”
Socialist Review
