Abstract

The article focuses on the controversy surrounding George Orwell's legacy, prompted by Anna Funder's biography "Wifedom: Mrs. Orwell's Invisible Life," which portrays Orwell as a misogynistic plagiarist. Topics discussed include allegations of Orwell's plagiarism, his treatment of his wife Eileen, and the potential consequences for Orwell's reputation and literary standing.
