Description
No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked maroon cloth boards, slightly rubbed spine ends and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn with very slighty creased spine ends. 495pp. A fascinating of George Orwell, the man behind 1984, Newspeak and Big Brother as well as many other classic works including Animal Farm and Keep the Aspidistra Flying. His life is told in detail - his Eton upbringing, as a policeman in Burma, fighting the fascists in Spain and as one of the most famous writers of the 20th century.
