内容简介
奥威尔是至今无法让人无法绕开的文学家、思想家。其传记已有大量问世，但迈耶尔此书被公认为最具权威的。本书作者依靠最新版《奥威尔全集》，走访大量与奥威尔有关联的人物，以详实的史料，勾勒出传主的完整人生。奥威尔经历复杂，亲身参与了西班牙内战、第二次世界大战等大事件。他的文学作品往往与他在大时代的感悟相关。更为可贵的是，迈耶尔并没有进一步神化传主，而还原了他在短暂一生中留下的情感、欲望世界。

Content introduction
Orwell is an inescapable writer and thinker. Many biographies have been published, but Meyer's is widely regarded as the most authoritative. The author of this book relies on the latest edition of the Complete Works of Orwell to interview a large number of people associated with Orwell, and to outline the complete life of the author with detailed historical materials. Orwell experienced a complex experience, personally involved in the Spanish Civil War, World War II and other major events. His literary works are often related to his perception of the great times. What is more valuable is that Meyer did not further deify the successor, but restored the world of emotions and desires left by him in his short life.
