Thomas Pynchon talks about George Orwell (1984 intro pg VII)

Orwell, G (2003 edition) 1984. London. Penguin books.

'More or less conciously, he found an analogy between British Labour and the Communist Party under Stalin - both, he felt, were movements professing the fight for the working classes against capitalism but in reality concerned only with establishing and perpetuating their own power.'
