My new t-shirt, just arrived. I have an interesting connection to George Orwell. There was a blue plaque dedicated to him where my parents lived.
A blue plaque is placed on buildings in the UK to commemorate a connection between a famous person, event, and a or specific site.
George Orwell was an English writer whose writings were a sharp criticism of totalitarianism both communism and fascism. His final book was 1984.
In the book "War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength" are the slogans of the ruling Party.
