1984 and Animal Farm - George Orwell (Eric Blair)

As mentioned before. I just read Animal Farm yesterday in 5 or 6 hours. It is very quick and easy, but interesting to read. Animal Farm was supposed to be about the Communists rise to power in Russia, but it could easily be interchanged with China.
I wish it wasn't true, but the world we live in could be summed up with 1984 discribing the USA and UK police states and always at war with a different enemy, and with Animal Farm being the former Russia and China. I just wonder what other books he would have written if he didn't pass away.
