Australian author Anna Funder talks to Dheepthika Laurent about her latest book “Wifedom”, a part-fiction, part non-fiction and part-hybrid novel about Eileen O’Shaughnessy. She was the highly educated wife of George Orwell, who played a pivotal but largely uncredited role in his career. Anna Funder also responds to criticism by the Orwell Society that the book portrayed Orwell as “maleficent” and talks about what propelled her to leave her career as a government lawyer to pursue writing full-time.

And, I would add Karin Bojes writings before Orwell – Kallocain. The same theme as Orwells 1984.
