Krátky popis
HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of
best-loved, essential classics. If there is one man to whom I do
feel myself inferior, it is a coalminer. In the mid-1930s, George
Orwell was given an assignment from his publisher - to write a book
about unemployment and social conditions in the economically
depressed north of England.Revolutionary for its time, The Road to
Wigan Pier documents Orwell's stint in towns likes Barnsley,
Sheffield and Wigan in 1936, where he met and observed
working-class people living in the bleak industrial heartlands of
Yorkshire and Lancashire. Orwell graphically and emphatically
describes the hardships of ordinary people living in cramped slum
housing, working in dangerous mines and growing hungry through
malnutrition and social injustice. It is an honest, gripping and
humane study that also looks at socialism as a solution to the
problems facing working-class northerners - something many readers
at the time were uncomfortable discussing.The Road to Wigan Pier
cemented ideas that would be found in Orwell's later works, and
remains a powerful portrait of poverty, injustice and class
divisions in Britain to this day.
