Paperback. Condition: Good. 459 pages. cover worn, text tanned George Orwell is a major figure in twentieth-century literature. The author o f Down and Out in Paris and London, Nineteen Eighty-four, and Animal Farm, he pu blished ten books and two collections of essays during his lifetime -- but in te rms of actual words, produced much more than seems possible for someone who died at the age of forty-six and was often struggling against poverty and ill health . His essays, letters, and journalism are among the most memorable, lucid, and i ntelligent ever written, the work of a master craftsman and a brilliant mind. Ta ken as a whole they form an essential collection, and read in toto and sequentia lly, they provide a remarkably literary self-portrait of an engaged, and consist ently engaging, writer. Here, in four volumes, is the best selection of his nonf iction writing now available, a trove of letters, essays, reviews, and journalis m that is breathtaking in its scope and eclectic passions. An Age Like This coll ects Orwell's essential early writings, including material that would later emer ge in Down and Out in Paris and London, as well as observations on marriage, rev iews of Henry Miller and J. B. Priestley, reports from the Spanish Civil War, an examination of the meaning and value of Charles Dickens, and notes on the early years of the Second World War. Seller Inventory # 3040cg
