Description: Eric Blair at 19-years-old is an unknown quantity - a recent graduate of Eton, he opts to become a policeman in 1920s Burma. However, the five years he spends in the cauldron of the British Raj with its inherent bigotry and brutality sees him emerge as George Orwell, a man primed to speak truth to power through his writing. Thought-provoking and immersive, this is the ambitious coming-of-age story of a man destined to be one of the world’s most influential authors.
