”England, whose England? That of Eric Blair, born into an imperial ruling class, or that of George Orwell, of The Road to Wigan Pier? To become Orwell, Blair deliberately exposed himself to the squalor and misery of industrial England, producing, in the record of his experience, ’a remarkable enlargement of our literature’ – one that reveals fundamental questions about the identity of the writer in relation to himself, his society, and the literary forms he uses. New questions arise when the road led on to Catalonia, and the political squalor of the Spanish Civil War. On this journey, Raymond Williams shows that Orwell travelled further to the Left, not (as is commonly supposed) in the opposite direction. Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four offer no comfort to the Right, though comfort has often been taken. Raymond Williams’s Orwell is an outstanding example of the changes that have taken place in literary studies in recent years, changes that Williams himself has done a great deal to bring about. He is Reader in Drama at Cambridge University, and the author of Culture and Society, The Long Revolution, Communications, Drama in Performance, and Modern Tragedy.”
