“Saints should always be judged guilty until they are proved innocent.”
Written in 1949, Reflections of Gandhi is both a review of Mahatma Gandhis autobiography, The Story of My Experiments with Truth, and an examination of his legacy. Orwell explores the tension between Gandhis spiritual ideals and his political actions, asking—with a mixture of admiration and sceptcism—whether his commitment to non-violence was compatible with the messy realities of politics.
Born Eric Arthur Blair, George Orwell (1903-1950) was a British novelist, essayist, and critic famous for his insightful social and political commentary. His personal engagement with real world issues imbues his work with a sense of social conscience that continues to resonate with readers, and his two most famous novels, Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four, continue to captivate audiences worldwide.
