A wide-ranging selection of George Orwell's essays, written in the clear-eyed, passionate and uncompromising style that has earned him a reputation as one of Britain's greatest writers.

From the impoverished districts of Paris to the streets of London, Orwell recounts his experiences on the bottom rung in some of Paris’ most famous kitchens, his time on the streets of London with a colourful cast of characters and offers biting social commentary on everything from accommodation and privilege to diet and language. Part memoir, part social commentary, Down and Out in Paris and London is a sobering analysis of poverty and society in two of the world’s wealthiest cities.

"Nationalismus ist untrennbar mit dem Streben nach Macht verbunden", aber nicht mit Patriotismus gleichzusetzen, so George Orwell in diesem kontroversen Essay. Was kennzeichnet nationalistisches Denken? Unter anderem der besessene Glaube an die eigene Überlegenheit und der Unwille, sein Handeln an realen Fakten auszurichten. Geschrieben 1945 und noch nie auf Deutsch erschienen, ist "Über Nationalismus" eine höchst zeitgemäße Lektüre und ein Plädoyer gegen den Rechtspopulismus.
