Overview

George Orwell was born in India in 1903 into a middle class family of civil servants. Educated in England, he returned to Burma at the age of 18 as an assistant police superintendent, a post he later resigned. Orwell, a socialist, believed the lower classes were the wellspring of world reform, so he went to live among them. What an education, for him and for us! Highly recommended.
