Summary note
"The Oxford Handbook of George Orwell offers a comprehensive overview of Orwell's thought and writing, covering his novels, essays, diaries, columns, letters, and reviews. Accessible to general readers and to established scholars alike, forty-eight chapters written by an international team of Orwell specialists address familiar topics-such as Orwell's journalism, broadcasting, literary criticism, and politics-as well as less well-trodden areas of his output, such as his accounts of stupidity, kindness, and justice, and his connections with contemporaries like Jack Common, Katharine Burdekin, Wyndham Lewis, and Victor Serge. It also includes innovative considerations of feminism, Afrofuturism, and queer speculative fiction"-- Provided by publisher.
