George Orwell - Miért írok? - Írások politikáról társadalomról

George Orwell became one of the greatest essayists of the 20th century with his uncompromising political writings guided by a visceral moral sense. The tireless fight against injustice gave rise to gripping texts, of which the present volume of Bázis Könyvek offers a thin but very important slice - in most cases for the first time in Hungarian. Lesser known and already classic writings from a creator who is rightly called the conscience of his generation, and who made thinking about politics and the profession of a public writer an art.

"Orwell is the most influential political writer of the twentieth century. He provides a personal example of how to engage in politics as a writer."
New York Review of Books
