In the next last 20 pages I've read I noticed that Unferth doesn't use any "dying metaphors." In fact, most of these metaphors (and similes I daresay). Examples of these correct ways to create imagery would be on page 40, where Unferth writes about how George "clicked into place like a battery." Then, she exposes how the girls answered to her demands, "they faces like searchlights." (44) Both of these examples I've never heard before. They show Unferth's originality and how she is Orwell considers a good writer in terms of the correct use of today's modern English.
This is supported because I intently searched for false limbs or pretentious diction. The only flaw in Revolution is the use of meaningless words. It's close to impossible to eliminate words that mean so much for one but might mean nothing to others. Unferth uses words like genius, hippie, etc. These words hold a stereotypical background that aids their concrete meaning but one can't plant thoughts in anthers mind. Leave that to Christopher Nolan's Inception.
On a scale of 1 through 4, Unferth would score a 3 for correct use of the language in the present times.
