George Orwell's vivid memoir of his time living among the desperately poor and destitute, "Down and Out in Paris and London" is a moving tour of the underworld of society from the author of "1984", published with an introduction by Dervla Murphy in "Penguin Modern Classics". 'You have talked so often of going to the dogs - and well, here are the dogs, and you have reached them.' Written when Orwell was a struggling writer in his twenties, it documents his 'first contact with poverty'. Here, he painstakingly documents a world of unrelenting drudgery and squalor - sleeping in bug-infested hostels and doss houses of last resort, working as a dishwasher in Paris' vile 'Hotel X', surviving on scraps and cigarette butts, living alongside tramps, a star-gazing pavement artist and a starving Russian ex-army captain. Exposing a shocking, previously-hidden world to his readers, Orwell gave a human face to the statistics of poverty for the first time - and in doing so, found his voice as a writer. Eric Arthur Blair (1903-1950), better known by his pen-name, George Orwell, was born in India, where his father worked for the Civil Service. An author and journalist, Orwell was one of the most prominent and influential figures in twentieth-century literature. His unique political allegory "Animal Farm" was published in 1945, and it was this novel, together with the dystopia of "Nineteen Eighty-Four" (1949), which brought him world-wide fame. All his novels and non-fiction, including "Burmese Days" (1934), "Down and Out in Paris and London" (1933), "The Road to Wigan Pier" (1937) and "Homage to Catalonia" (1938) are published in "Penguin Modern Classics". If you enjoyed "Down and Out in Paris and London", you might like "Homage to Catalonia", also available in "Penguin Modern Classics". "Orwell was the great moral force of his age". ("Spectator"). "The white-hot reaction of a sensitive, observant, compassionate young man to poverty". (Dervla Murphy).
喬治奧威爾再次以他驚人的觀察力和細緻的筆觸呈現給我們一個如此廣泛存在卻往往被忽略的社會底層群體。他們的生活是那麼具體,卻又是那麼不真實,赤貧給人身心帶來的痛苦和麻木恐怕隻有經曆過赤貧纔能知道,喬治奧威爾無疑用自己的親身經曆為我們打開瞭瞭解這個階層的窗。通過他的處女作,我仿佛看到瞭一個實在得毫無水分的偉大作傢的誕生。
評分超超超級喜歡這本!!這本書我做瞭presentation 寫瞭論文 做瞭seminar 所以已經不想再去評論瞭 我隻想說真的是個fun read
評分喬治奧威爾的“落魄隨筆”,看得人想自己拿起筆寫寫身邊的奇人異事。(英文書剛開頭還有興趣一個詞一個詞查,後來就完全“不求甚解”瞭....
評分早幾年讀可能會關注底層生活瑣碎故事。現在明白流浪漢不隻是個人選擇,也有社會原因。 書中少有長評,最觸動的是:He lives in a rhythm between work and sleep, without time to think, hardly conscious of the exterior world; his Paris has shrunk to the hotel, the Metro, a few bistros and his bed.……To sum up, a plongeur is a slave, and a wasted slave——不要成為潛水員(plongeur),警醒自己:保持上進,多多社交,好好理財--2018年第23本,kindle第36本

George Orwell 将他在巴黎和伦敦底层生活的经历写了下来,那些漂泊生活,身无分文,穷困潦倒的经历。他被出版社拒绝了数次,终于得以出版此书。想来也是可以理解,在他生活的年代中,受教育的读者群大多对这种赤裸裸的,毫不浪漫,简单直白的贫穷生活缺乏兴趣吧。 在巴黎,他住...
