ORWELL'S OTHER BOOKS

I have finished reading all of Orwell's books in the order in which he wrote them. This section of Orwell Today contains excerpts and will be added to as time goes by. ~ Jackie Jura

1st book, ORWELL DOWN & OUT, 1933

2nd book, ORWELL'S BURMESE DAYS, 1934

3rd book, ORWELL & CLERGYMAN'S DAUGHTER, 1935

4th book, ORWELL'S ASPIDISTRA FLYING, 1936

5th book, ORWELL'S ROAD TO WIGAN, 1937

6th book, ORWELL'S HOMAGE TO CATALONIA, 1938

7th book, ORWELL COMING UP FOR AIR, 1939

8th book, ORWELL'S ANIMAL FARM, 1945

9th book, ORWELL IN 1984, 1949

I recently acquired (this past February 2005) a first edition, four-volume set of:

THE COLLECTED ESSAYS, JOURNALISM AND LETTERS OF GEORGE ORWELL, edited by Sonia Orwell and Ian Angus, 1968:

EB & GO Gilded
Eric Blair (George Orwell) signatures written in gold across the covers

The four volumes are comprised of:

Volume 1 - An Age Like This (1920-1940)
Volume 2 - My Country Right or Left (1940-1943)
Volume 3 - As I Please (1943-1945)
Volume 4 - In Front of Your Nose (1945-1950)

The four volumes are a welcome addtion to a first-edition book I've owned since 1993, and which fueled my appreciation of George Orwell, containing as it does fantastic excerpts from his major writings:
