1985146311London: Duckworth / BBC 1985. Hardcover. NF/NF. Black cloth/boards; gold spine lettering. Sepia photograhic dj with black spine lettering. 304 pp. with 23 bw images. Editor W.J. West discovered a numerous scripts and pieces of correspondence by Orwell. These together with Orwell's noted news commentary on the course of WWII during the years 1941-43 form the basis of the book. "Not only is it fascinating in itself but it proves the extreme importance of the period to Orwel's literary development. Thus the setting of Animal Farm is seen to derive from a radio adaptation of a political fable set in a pig farm; and 1984 can be traced in its crucial hands of the Ministry of Information under Brendan Bracken which censored all overseas broadcasts and became the model of the Ministry of Truth.
