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.

Eric Arthur Blair (1903–1950) was an English novelist, essay writer, critic and journalist born in Bengal, British India. Better known by his pen name, George Orwell, the writer’s most famous works include the novels Animal Farm, 1945, and Nineteen Eighty-Four, 1949. His work boldly expresses his opposition to totalitarianism, and he is well-known for weaving social and political commentary into his texts. His influence is still widely seen today, for example, the adjective ‘Orwellian’ is commonly used to describe an authoritarian idea or social practise.
