Service. An author and journalist, Orwell was one of the most
prominent and influential figures in twentieth-century literature.
His unique political allegory Animal Farm was published in 1945,
and it was this novel, together with the dystopia of Nineteen
Eighty-Four (1949), which brought him world-wide fame. His novels
and non-fiction include Burmese Days, Down and Out in Paris and
London, The Road to Wigan Pier and Homage to Catalonia.
