This book is very relatable as a food worker living in a seasonal area living paycheck to paycheck…. But the antisemitic side characters nasty comments are taking me out of the story a bit👀

L’histoire de Orwell durant le début de sa vie d’adulte dans la pauvreté parisienne (pour le moment) des années 20, c’est passionnant

Much easier to read than many classics. Described a world I had no knowledge of.
