Fiorirà l'aspidistra

by George Orwell, Giorgio Monicelli (Translator)

Overview

Gordon Comstock ha sacrificato tutto: la carriera, le ambizioni dei genitori, la rispettabilità borghese, in nome dell'arte, nella vaga speranza di diventare un famoso scrittore. Ma tutti i suoi sogni e i suoi sacrifici saranno vanificati dall'annuncio di una prossima paternità, avvenimento destinato a ricondurlo alle oscure ma solide soddisfazioni di un'esistenza comune.
