Notă biografică

GEORGE ORWELL, pseudonym of Eric Arthur Blair (1903-1950), was a British novelist, essayist, and critic whose work has had great influence on contemporary thought and social philosophy. Terms Orwell invented, such as "Orwellian"-describing totalitarian and authoritarian practices-and "Big Brother," "Thought Police," and "Newspeak," are in common use to this day.

Recenzii

True genius ... all his anger and frustration found their first proper means of expression in Wigan Pier

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

A searing account of George Orwell's observations of working-class life in the bleak industrial heartlands of Yorkshire and Lancashire in the 1930s, The Road to Wigan Pier is a brilliant and bitter polemic that has lost none of its political impact over time. His graphically unforgettable descriptions of social injustice, cramped slum housing, dangerous mining conditions, squalor, hunger and growing unemployment are written with unblinking honesty, fury and great humanity. It crystallized the ideas that would be found in Orwell's later works and novels, and remains a powerful portrait of poverty, injustice and class divisions in Britain.
Published with an introduction by Richard Hoggart in Penguin Modern Classics.
'It is easy to see why the book created and still creates so sharp an impact ... exceptional immediacy, freshness and vigour, opinionated and bold ... Above all, it is a study of poverty and, behind that, of the strength of class-divisions'
Richard Hoggart
