Summary Note	"April, 1947. In a run-down farmhouse on a remote Scottish island, George Orwell begins his last and greatest work: 'Nineteen Eighty-Four'. Forty-four years old and suffering from the tuberculosis that within three winters will take his life, Orwell comes to see the book as his legacy – the culmination of a career spent fighting to preserve the freedoms which the wars and upheavals of the twentieth century have threatened. Completing the book is an urgent challenge, a race against death. In this novel, Dennis Glover masterfully explores the creation of Orwell’s classic work, which for millions of readers worldwide defined the twentieth century. Simultaneously a captivating drama, a unique literary excavation and an unflinching portrait of a beloved British writer, 'The last man in Europe' will change the way you understand 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' - Back cover.
