{"product_id":"9781472132963","title":"Orwell : The New Life by D.J. Taylor","description":"Over seventy years since his premature death, George Orwell (1903-50) has become one of the most significant figures in western literature. His two dystopian masterpieces, Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) have together sold over 40 million copies. Even now, he continues to exert a decisive influence on our understanding of international power-politics.    D.J. Taylor's new biography, the first full-length study for 20 years, draws on a wide range of previously unseen material - newly-discovered letters to old girlfriends and professional colleagues, the recollections of the dwindling band of people who remember him, new information about his life in the early 1930s - to produce a definitive portrait of this complex, driven and self-mythologising man.; 608 pages, 2x 8pp plate sections; 25\/05\/2023\u003cdiv class=\"goodreadr\" data-isbn=\"9781472132963\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Little, Brown Book Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56451926884734,"sku":"9781472132963","price":19.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/1298\/0350\/files\/9781472132963.jpg?v=1761273290","url":"https:\/\/it-book.co.uk\/products\/9781472132963","provider":"IT-Book","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
