Who is the author of the dystopian book "Nineteen Eighty-Four," where the concept of Newspeak exemplifies the increased linguistic awareness characteristic of modernist literature?

Explanation

The novel "Nineteen Eighty-Four" was written by George Orwell. In this book, Newspeak is a fictional language designed to limit freedom of thought, reflecting the modernist writers’ deep interest in language and its influence on consciousness. Virginia Woolf and Evelyn Waugh were also prominent writers but did not create this work. Orson Welles was a filmmaker and actor, not the author of this novel.
