En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on his experiences as a struggling writer, Orwell's memoir captures life in Paris and London during the 1930s. Through vivid and honest storytelling, he recounts his search for work and nights spent on benches, while intertwining the stories of others facing similar hardships. The narrative highlights the stark contrasts and disturbing continuities in societal issues, particularly job insecurity and homelessness, making it a relevant read that resonates with contemporary audiences just as powerfully as it did nearly 90 years ago.
