Description
Only edition in print
FULLY ANNOTATED EDITION (Contains 545 detailed notes)
After leaving his job with the BBC Eastern Service in November 1943, George Orwell became literary editor of Tribune magazine, penning a regular column called “As I Please” between 3rd December 1943 and 28th March 1947. Encompassing political opinion, literary criticism and social critique, Orwell's editorials represent an invaluable commentary on the major cultural issues that preoccupied Britain during and after the war.
Collected here in one volume, and fully annotated, these opinion pieces showcase Orwell's polemical brilliance and cement his reputation as one of the finest journalists and literary writers in the English language.
