Down and Out in Paris and London

Set in the early 1930s, the narrative delves into the struggles of an impoverished English writer navigating life in Paris and London. Through a partly autobiographical lens, it examines the harsh realities of poverty and its effects on humanity. Orwell highlights themes of social injustice, the conflict between individuals and societal structures, and the experiences of ordinary people facing oppressive systems, making it a poignant reflection on the human condition.
