A review by collismeanshill
A Collection of Essays by George Orwell

2.0

The repeated derogatory terms for and opinions of other nations/nationalities was excessively distracting, but I do understand that I read this long after the author’s time and well into an age of multiculturalism and fluid borders. The author’s reputed and self-announced staunch support for the oppressed appears flaccid however in the face of such attitudes and beliefs. A fan of several of his works, I admit that Orwell is an excellent writer. He expresses his own deplorable ideas extremely well here, too.
