A Collection of Essays (Harvest Book)by George Orwell
Staff Pick
Sharing the same uncompromising language as his fiction, Orwell's essays explore everything from shooting an elephant to Henry Miller, and from boyhood schooling to the Spanish Civil War. Yet, despite the diversity of subjects, each essay looks to do the same thing: peel back the surface to look at what is, what isn't, and what should be. Go ahead and do yourself a favor—blow your mind with some Orwell.
