Hilary Mantel

I see the Booker Prize winner, Hilary Mantel is giving the 'George Orwell Lecture' on November 17 in my college, Birkbeck. I got a ticket. I am a great fan of Hialry Mantel and the late Mr Orwell. I loved 'Fludd' and 'Beyond Black'. They have a unique darkness and morbidity. I feel there is no point in listing the late Mr Orwell's achievements, other than to state that I wish he were around now.
