1903年生于印度,在英国成长。少年时入读著名的伊顿公学,毕业后因成绩一般、家境不富裕无力攻读大学,考取了公务员,被派到缅甸任警察。1927年辞去公职回到伦敦,开始从事文学创作。1936年,参加了西班牙内战。因伤回国后又被划入左派,不得不流亡法国。二战中,在英国广播公司(BBC)从事宣传工作。后来又从事专栏书评写作。1950年死于肺病。
乔治·奥威尔一生短暂,但他以敏锐的洞察力和犀利的文笔审视和记录着他所生活的那个时代,做出了许多超越时代的预言,被称为“一代人的冷峻良知”。代表作有《动物农庄》和《一九八四》等。

While I was reading Orwell's attack on British left intelligentsia during WW2 I feel it is really like 陳雲 attacking 左膠 in Hong Kong, the latter of which claims their devotion to internationalism and therefore derides patriotic Hong Kong localism in face of the fascist totalitarian AND also postmodern intrusion from the PRC. Masterfully written.
