As a critic, George Orwell cast a wide net. Equally at homediscussing Charles Dickens and Charlie Chaplin, he moved back andforth across the porous borders between essay and journalism, highart and low. A frequent commentator on literature, language, film,and drama throughout his career, Orwell turned increasingly to thecritical essay in the 1940s, when his most important experienceswere behind him and some of his most incisive writing lay ahead."All Art Is Propaganda "follows Orwell as he demonstrates in pieceafter piece how intent analysis of a work or body of work givesrise to trenchant aesthetic and philosophical commentary.
