Publisher's Summary

Down and out in Paris and London is the first full-length work by the English author George Orwell, published in 1933. It is a memoir in two parts on the theme of poverty in the two cities. The first part is an account of living in near-destitution in Paris and the experience of casual labour in restaurant kitchens. The second part is a travelogue of life on the road in and around London from the tramp's perspective, with descriptions of the types of hostel accommodation available and some of the characters to be found living on the margins.

Poverty and hard times journal

A non judgemental look into the lives of the street entrenched and working poor from one man's account of life in two cities. Hard to hear at times but easy to listen to!
