Matyáš Namai Author, Illustrator & Editor

Matyáš Namai studied graphic design at the Škola Michael in Prague. He has contributed to the magazines ABC (The Master  of Shaolin, The Millennium Thief ) and Playboy (Ironic Applause). His comics and graphic novels aim to sensitively reveal the psychology of their characters, using a filmic sense of dramatic editing and a feel for detail. Matyáš’ favourite hobby is roasting bacon over a fire.

George Orwell was one of England's most famous writers and social commentators. Among his works are the classic political satire Animal Farm and the dystopian nightmare vision Nineteen Eighty-Four. Orwell was also a prolific essayist, and it is for these works that he was perhaps best known during his lifetime. They include Why I Write and Politics and the English Language. His writing is at once insightful, poignant and entertaining, and continues to be read widely all over the world.
