Description
Down and Out in Paris and London is a powerful and thought-provoking account of the author's experiences living among the working poor in two of Europe's most troubled cities. In the 1930s, Orwell chronicled the sense of profound injustice, incipient violence, and malign betrayal that were ubiquitous in Europe, drawing on his own experiences as a member of the Imperial Indian Police and a socialist who sought to expose the truth. This edition includes a collection of essays that offer a riveting and insightful look at the lives of those struggling to survive, as well as Orwell's own search for the truth and his commitment to social justice.
