Einen großen Teil seiner prosaischen Werke bilden seine Essays ab, hier der abschließende Teil 25. In Freiheit des Parks zeigt Orwell anhand eines relativ banalen Vorfalls, nämlich der Verhaftung von Zeitungsjungen wegen Verkauf von Zeitungen, die offensichtlichen Schwachstellen demokratischer Gesellschaften, welche in ihrem Funktionieren nicht nur von ihren exekutiven und judikativen Organen abhängig sind, sondern eben auch von den Menschen, die dahinter stehen.

Es bleibt offen, ob diese makabere Beichte den Tatsachen entspricht oder ob hier ein Selbstvermarktungs- und Marketinggenie zu Werke ging – jedenfalls hat es sich überaus gut verkauft.

In W B Yeats wird die Literatur des ersten irischen Literatur-Nobelpreisträgers unter die Lupe genommen und dabei festgestellt, dass dessen persönlicher Hang zum Mystischen und Okkulten durchaus in seine schriftlichen Ergüsse einflossen, wobei Orwell als Quintessenz resultiert, dass auffallende Parallelen zwischen eingefleischten Religionsanhängern und Faschisten in Bezug auf den Hang zur Erklärung der Welt durch einfache Antworten besteht.
