This is an absolute classic book recording Orwell's experience living on the streets of Paris and London. As such it gives a fascinating insight into life in the two capitals at the start of the twentieth century, and in particular how the poor and working classes lived. The book becomes a bit dull and repetitive at times, but it is a must for anyone who is interested in classic English Literature and English Social History. After this, try reading his Road to Wigan Pier.
