Welcome to the blogosphere, George Orwell! Just a quick note to remind of all you out there to keep an eye on http://orwelldiaries.wordpress.com to read all that remains of George Orwell’s personal and political diaries, day by day. In the words of the site’s founders:
‘The Orwell Prize, Britain’s pre-eminent prize for political writing, is publishing George Orwell’s diaries as a blog. From 9th August 2008, Orwell’s domestic and political diaries (from 9th August 1938 until October 1942) will be posted in real-time, exactly 70 years after the entries were written.’
The entries start from today, thanks to Orwell’s executors, A.M.Heath. Here’s a question: if Orwell were alive and actively blogging today, who would be on his blogroll?
Thanks for the informative post
