Down and Out in Paris and London: With the Introductory Essay 'Why I Write'

A fascinating and thought-provoking insight into poverty in the late 1920s, Down and Out in Paris and London is George Orwell's memoir chronicling his time living as a vagabond in the two prosperous cities.

First published in 1933, this autobiographical volume is George Orwell's first full-length work. Recounting his experiences working casual manual-labour jobs and living on the fringes of society, Orwell offers a profound glimpse into the marginal lives of working-class life in prominent capitals. This new edition of the author's first social commentary features his essay 'Why I Write' and is not to be missed by collectors of Orwell's work.
