1984 is a seminal work of dystopian fiction written by British author George Orwell. Born Eric Arthur Blair in 1903, Orwell was known for his sharp criticism of totalitarian regimes and impassioned advocacy of democratic socialism. Orwell’s experiences as a police officer in colonial Burma, a fighter in the Spanish Civil War, and a critic of Stalinist Russia profoundly influenced his writing. His firsthand observations of political manipulation and the corrupting nature of power are deeply embedded in his works.

Eric Arthur Blair, better known by his pen name George Orwell, selected this name after his favorite location, the River Orwell. Renowned for his lucid prose and incisive social criticism, Orwell, as a novelist, poet, essayist, journalist, and critic, consistently opposed totalitarianism in all its forms—whether left-wing authoritarian communism or right-wing fascism—and advocated for democratic socialism.
