from his real life or the events of his era. To
understand the influences on his works we should
look at his life beginning from his childhood.
Orwell says that he was a lonely child and
unpopular at school, and knew that he had a
facility with words and a power of facing
unpleasant facts, which created a sort of private
world where he could get his own back for his
failure in everyday life. After reading Milton's
Paradise Lost he decides what kin...
