Coming up for air

Author:	George Orwell
Publisher:	Fairfield, IA : 1st World Library, 2004.
Edition/Format:	eBook : Document : Fiction : English : 1st edView all editions and formats
Summary:	The speaker is George "Fatty" Bowling, an insurance salesman, with a wife he does not love and two children he finds annoying. The idea is to take the seventeen pounds he almost accidentally won on a horse race and to go visit Lower Binfield, the village in which he grew up and which holds so many happy memories of youth and of a simpler England. The story is set in 1938, the War approaching, and George's thoughts continually drift back to the time before WWI. And so he decides to try and recapture that scene of his youth. But of course the village and the life he recalls are long since gone. Orwell manages to tell a story, but includes so many deep feelings - parental love, in its many guises, and love for ones parents - schooling that, whatever your era, you will empathise with - the realisation that you are grown-up, and, no matter how hard you try, or how hard you want it, you can't have your childhood back.  Read more...
