Beginning tomorrow, August 9th, a new blog will begin publishing the diaries of author George Orwell. Each post will be published on the site exactly 70 years from the date of its original entry in the author’s diary.
The project will provide insight into the author’s life for four years, from 1938 to 1942. Entries in his diary precede the publication of his literary classic 1984, although the foundation of the book likely began to materialize when he was working as a propagandist for the BBC, supervising Indian broadcasts in 1941.
George Orwell was the pseudonym for Eric Blair who was born in British India in 1903.
Thanks for this post. Will definitely RSS this.
