He tried to change political events into art. He explains in his essay ‘Why I write’ published in 1947 how his political interests grow deeper. He wanted to be unforgettable, inspiring and giving a new right direction to people. ‘What I have most wanted to do throughout the ten past years is to make political writing into an art.’ (Why I write-G.O)

The rulers of this new society will be the people who effectively control the means of production:
