paperback. No Jacket. New York. 1963. Signet/New American Library. 3rd Printing of This Signet Classic Edition. Very Good in Wrappers With Two Small Tears On The Back Cover. 045150609x. Afterword By Richard Rees. paperback. CQ609. keywords: Signet Classic Paperback England Literature. DESCRIPTION - The product of intimate personal knowledge, Burmese Days, George Orwell's first novel, offers a scathing indictment of British Imperial rule. Against a brilliantly rendered exotic background, the author presents a bitter and satiric picture of the corruption spawned by absolute power, a corruption all - pervading and inescapable, infecting white man and native alike. His theme is given sharp focus in the struggle of. John Flory, the novel's English hero, to maintain some measure of integrity in a debilitating moral climate. As Flory is inexorably driven to final tragic defeat, the reader encounters a vividly delineated cross section of Anglo - Indian society and was an unsurpassed portrayal of an era of history whose effects still profoundly trouble the modern world. Burmese Days is a superb example of Orwell's literary skill and of the fierce and uncompromising vision that made him, in the words of V. S. Pritchett, 'the conscience of his generation.' inventory #29190 Very Good in Wrappers With Two Small Tears On The Back Cover. Seller Inventory # z29190
