Description

This collection is an uninterrupted pleasure, featuring a unique piece on almost every page. George Orwell wrote, with his own words, from "a desire to see things as they are." This new collection of his journalism and other writings includes articles, essays, radio broadcasts, poetry, and book and film reviews from his career, showcasing his unique ability to observe the world. Whether discussing Polish immigration or Scottish independence, condemning racism, advocating for the English language, or engaging in a fanciful conversation with Jonathan Swift, these texts reveal an insightful, entertaining, and consistently relevant chronicler of his time.

Edited with an introduction by Peter Davison, this work is primarily intended as a collection of his journalism, prioritizing lesser-known pieces and critiques, as well as some of the poems he wrote. It contains great interest and many curiosities.

Pages: 496, Dimensions: 12.9x12.9cm.
