Paperback. Condición: Good. Considering that much of his life was spent in poverty and ill health, it is something of a miracle that in only forty-six years George Orwell managed to publish ten books and two collections of essays.

From 1943 to 1945, he wrote a regular column for the Tribune, a left wing weekly, entitled As I Please. His observations about life in Britain during the war embraced everything from anti-American sentiment to the history of domestic appliances.…
