George Orwell (1903–1950) was a British writer and essayist. It was he who introduced the term “cold war” into the political language, which later received widespread worldwide use. “Pounds of Dashing in Paris and London” is Orwell’s first major work, which he began in 1929 and, after all sorts of ordeals, was finally published in 1933. It was on the cover of this debut book that the unknown aspiring writer Eric A. Blair first called himself George Orwell. “Days in Burma” is a harsh and mocking work about the “white colonialists” of the East, united in a sense of superiority over the natives, but internally divided, tormented by snobbery and petty feuds. “The Priest’s Daughter” is a fascinating story about how a simple accident can change life beyond recognition, turning deeply sincere Faith into a simple habit. “Long live ficus!” and “Get a breath of air” - very different, but equally witty novels that play on the theme of the collision of a bright personality and wretched philistine ideas about happiness. And, of course, the unsurpassed “1984” and “Animal Farm”. Contents: Pounds of dashing in Paris and London Days in Burma The priest’s daughter Long live the ficus!
