"Funnies in Paris and London" - dramatic and at the same time filled with Orwell's sarcastic humor autobiographical story of a young English intellectual interrupted in the capitals by the occasional earnings of a dishwasher in restaurants. A gloomy, brilliant and accurate self-portrait of one of the typical representatives of the European “lost generation” The same sarcastic pessimism distinguishes the publicistic "Road to Wigan Pierce" , in which Orwell explores the disquieting existence of representatives as workers and the middle class of Northern England, and reflects on the prerequisites for the enthusiasm of his contemporaries from different strata of society for socialist ideas.
