Voice Against Tyranny
George Orwell (1903–1950) was a British writer, journalist, and social critic best known for his powerful novels 1984 and Animal Farm. Renowned for his fierce opposition to totalitarianism, censorship, and propaganda, Orwell's work explored themes of truth, freedom, and the abuse of power. His writing remains strikingly relevant today, offering chilling insights into the dangers of authoritarian rule and the manipulation of language and information. Orwell’s experiences in the Spanish Civil War and observations of political oppression deeply shaped his worldview. His legacy endures as a defender of free thought and a critic of corrupt political systems.
