這纔是讀的第一本orwell的書呀！可憐當時人傻，竟然沒讀懂 2012年2-5月
评分AP World History的寒假reading｜隻讀瞭shooting the elephant那一篇短文 這一篇以Orwell這樣的在殖民地的colonial officer的角度來描述“我”眼中的殖民地和被殖民的群眾以及“我”與其關係
评分把貧睏寫得尖酸刻薄，入木三分
评分Trenchant and moving but a bit over-radical, as he always is.
评分超好看！ 就是我一直不懂為何其中這麼挫的一篇能做標題，還能被選到我們World Literature課本裏...
