Answer 3

George Orwell is most definately a worthy recipiant of a Nobel Prize, regardless of how little he wrote in terms of fiction. Unfortunately, as he died within a year of, arguably, his work of genius, Nineteen Eighty-Four. However, the essays Orwell wrote throughout his life are definitetely something to be marvelled at, and perhaps a shame they were not recognised as such during his life.
