Originally published in 1933 George Orwell's first work is a memoir of working in grimy restaurant kitchens in Paris, and tramping the streets and living in hostels in London.

Down and Out in Paris and London is one of the great accounts of life in the underclass: of being hard-up and hungry, of sleeping in seedy hostels and working in squalid restaurants. George Orwell’s first book published - when he was not yet thirty - is alive with the sights and smells of poverty. It is a revelatory memoir of surviving at the margins.
