Krátky popis
'You can live on a shilling a day in Paris if you know how. But it
is a complicated business'As a struggling writer in his twenties,
Orwell lived as a down-and-out among the poorest members of
society. In this, his early memoir, Orwell recalls with vivid
clarity his time working as a penniless dishwasher in Paris,
pawning clothes to buy a day's worth of bread and wine, sleeping in
bug-infested bunks, trading survival skills and cigarette butts
with fellow tramps, and trudging between London's workhouse spikes
for a few hours' sleep and tea.With all of the sensitivity and
compassion that Orwell is known and loved for, he exposed the
hardships of poverty and gave readers an unprecedented look at life
lived on the fringes of society. This vivid account is an enduring
call to support the world's most vulnerable people and exemplifies
his belief that 'The greatest of evils and the worst of crimes is
poverty.'WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY KERRY HUDSON
