Produktinformasjon
<p>George Orwell''s paean to the end of an idyllic era in British history, <i>Coming Up for Air</i> is a poignant account of one man''s attempt to recapture childhood innocence as war looms on the horizon.<br><br>George Bowling, forty-five, mortgaged, married with children, is an insurance salesman with an expanding waistline, a new set of false teeth - and a desperate desire to escape his dreary life. He fears modern times - since, in 1939, the Second World War is imminent - foreseeing food queues, soldiers, secret police and tyranny. So he decides to escape to the world of his childhood, to the village he remembers as a rural haven of peace and tranquillity. But his return journey to Lower Binfield may bring only a more complete disillusionment ...<br><br>''Very funny, as well as invigoratingly realistic ... <i>Nineteen Eighty-Four </i>is here in embryo. So is <i>Animal Farm</i> ... not many novels carry the seeds of two classics as well as being richly readable themselves''<br>John
