As I please. George Orwell

The genre of the author's column does not seem to involve the creation of some timeless texts that surprise with their depth and analysis, are memorable and make you think, but everything changes if the author of such a column is George Orwell.

Using the essay form, the writer conducts a frank dialogue with the reader about the then turbulent world, engulfed in the largest war in the history of mankind, about relationships between people, about the economic situation in the country, about the not-so-optimistic view of the future of humanity - about everything that worries, confuses, scares and consoles people of that difficult war era, and Orwell does this, as always, interestingly and talentedly.

"...our Earth is a madhouse, where sick people from other planets are sent," "...people's political behavior is mostly irrational, the world is sick with some kind of mental illness" - unfortunately, George Orwell's observations from that time still remain relevant, building a bridge of analogies and meanings between our dissimilar and at the same time so similar times of war.
