Do you like Orwell?

This was an interesting brief review. I haven't read every word Orwell ever wrote, but I've read a lot of them, and I agree that he was incapable both of intellectual dishonesty and of writing bad English.

I used his book of essays as a basic text, along with Strunk and White, in my Expository Writing classes. E.B. White's essays were the third of the assigned texts. if I could write like White and Orwell, I could die happy.
