NN Gibson re Orwell

[Dave Monroe]

"I had a valuable secret in 1984, though, one I owed
in large part to Orwell, who would have turned 100
today: I knew that the novel I had written wasn't
really about the future, just as '1984' hadn't been
about the future, but about 1948. I had relatively
little anxiety about eventually finding myself in a
society of the sort Orwell imagined. I had other fish
to fry, in terms of history and anxiety, and indeed I
still do."
