Orwell you read so well

I love George Orwell's literary works, two pieces that stand out are Nineteen Eighty-Four and Down and Out in Paris and London.  His writings were meaningful and he urged the reader to interpret their surroundings and challenge the status quo.  He wrote an essay that I red in undergrad around the politics of language and how it can be used as a powerful tool for political manipulation.  In Nineteen Eighty-Four there are political language themes that dance around statesmen and controlling of thoughts and generation of misinformation to influence society, yet it is very much the theme that we see every day in America.  The State may not be in control of political language (Murdoch) as much as the various news stations (Murdoch), and more often than not give misinformation that can vastly influence society (Murdoch).
If you haven't experienced the Orwell world yet give it a go, it's easy to relate to modern times.
