Orwell (selection)

What selection of Orwell should we read?

Parts one and two.

blogs for the other two selections as well?

If you can work a reference to DuGuild & Brown into your Orwell agenda item, that would be great, but it's supplemental reading, so I'm only asking you to do the whole blog-and-comment thing on Orwell.

"they'll shoot me i don't care they'll shoot me in the back of the neck i don't care down with big brother they'll always shoot you in the back of the neck i don't care down with big brother-" (Orwell 1984, p.20)

"The speech had been proceeding for perhaps twenty minutes when a messenger hurried onto the platform and a scrap of paper was slipped into the speaker's hand. He unrolled and read it without pausing in his speech. ... The orator, still gripping the neck of the microphone, his shoulders hunched forward, his free hand clawing at the air, had gone straight on with his speech. One minute more, and the feral roars of rage were again bursting from the crowd. The Hate continued exactly as before, except that the target had been changed.

...

Winston stopped reading, chiefly in order to appreciate the fact that he was reading, in comfort and safety. He was alone... He settled deeper into the armchair and put his feet up on the fender. It was bliss, it was eternity.(Orwell 181, 184-185)"
