Burmese Days
In 1920s colonial Burma, the disillusioned Englishman John Flory struggles to navigate life in a small British outpost. Isolated and resentful of the corruption around him, he befriends the ambitious Burmese doctor Veraswami, whose fate depends on being accepted by the ruling Europeans. When Elizabeth Lackersteen, a young Englishwoman, arrives in town, Flory sees a chance for love and escape from his loneliness—but his hopes are soon threatened by racial tensions, social expectations, and the scheming of a ruthless magistrate. A searing critique of British colonialism, Burmese Days exposes the moral decay at the heart of empire. George Orwell’s sharp prose and unflinching realism paint a world where power is maintained through cruelty, and where those who challenge the status quo risk losing everything. A novel of disillusionment and tragic inevitability, it remains a haunting exploration of oppression, identity, and the cost of complicity. GEORGE ORWELL was born in India in 1903 and passed away in London in 1950. As a journalist, critic, and author, he was a sharp commentator on his era and its political conditions and consequences.
A Hanging
In the damp morning air of a Burmese prison, a man is led to the gallows. As the routine execution unfolds, a moment of startling clarity reveals the fragility and value of a single human life. With precise observation and unflinching honesty, the narrative captures the quiet horror of state-sanctioned death and the casual cruelty of colonial rule. A Hanging is one of George Orwell’s most powerful essays—an unembellished yet profound reflection on mortality, justice, and the human cost of imperialism. Through vivid detail and stark prose, Orwell forces readers to confront uncomfortable truths that remain as relevant today as when they were first written. GEORGE ORWELL was born in India in 1903 and passed away in London in 1950. As a journalist, critic, and author, he was a sharp commentator on his era and its political conditions and consequences.
