Описание и характеристики
Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is edited and introduced by Professor Michael Gardiner.
Orwell's interests were broad. He often wrote about everyday concerns such as transport, food and the weather. Turning to social issues, he exposed the plight of the poor and the unemployed. He dissected the idea of nationalism and he examined the failings of the Left. What emerges from his acute observation of English rituals, habits and attitudes is his belief that these are the very things with which the English people can defend themselves against oppression. His writing remains insightful and prescient to this day.

Отзывы
Мини-книга размером с ладонь или шоколадку. Страницы с золотым теснением, красиво.
Обложка бумажная, снимающаяся, с золотым названием. Внутри бумажной обложки тканевая, с вытесненным рисунком. Есть тесёмка-закладка. Коллекторское издание Макмиллан. Белые, плотные страницы, шрифт скорее мелкий.
Внутри собрание эссе Оруелла, в представлении не нуждаются: остроумие, юмор и просто быт, мысли, жизнь, которой живет писатель. Ценителям понравится.
