San Francisco CA: Arion Press 2013. three-piece cloth printed on front and back gilt stamped spine slipcase. Arion Press. large 8vo. three-piece cloth printed on front and back gilt stamped spine slipcase. 204 pages. One of 300 numbered copies signed by the artist. Fine in fine slipcase.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> A special edition of George Orwell's 1945 allegory with illustrations by Jonathan Hammer b. 1960 who worked for a time as a bookbinder at the Arion Press. As the Stanford University historian Peter Stansky writes in his introduction "Orwell is a writer of extraordinary power and this may be his greatest masterpiece a perfect text. As a fable about human nature it transcends the political era in which it was written. It is in so many ways a despairing book but it has such compassion and empathy. In the end there is still a glimmer that possibly some day we might create a better and more equal society." Composed in Monotype Times New Roman and letterpress printed on ivory Zerkall mouldmade paper. The 24 relief prints are letterpress printed from polymer plates made from films scratched by the artist with an etching needle for the black images and with photo-polymer plates made from overlay drawings in pencil for the red tints.

ALEPH. new. Escrito durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial e publicado em 1945 A revolu��o dos bichos � uma alegoria pol�tica baseada na Revolu��o Russa e na ditadura stalinista � foi eleito um dos cem melhores romances em l�ngua inglesa do sǸculo 20. Cansados dos maus-tratos e da explora��o a que s�o submetidos na Fazenda do Solar os animais se rebelam contra seu mestre o expulsam e assumem o controle da propriedade. Liderados pelos porcos os bichos estabelecem uma sociedade igualitǭria baseada no Animalismo um sistema de ideias contrǭrio �� tirania dos seres humanos e que na prǭtica garantiria liberdade justi��a e fartura de alimentos a todos. Mas com o passar do tempo as esperan��as de um futuro mais feliz v�o se perdendo. O ideais da rebeli�o s�o corrompidos e depois esquecidos. Os porcos novos donos do poder repetem antigos hǭbitos e aos poucos instauram um novo regime de opress�o. Obra mǭxima de George Orwell 1984 Ǹ um dos livros mais influentes do sǸculo 20. Eternizada pela cr�tica ao totalitarismo e �� usurpa��o dos direitos individuais esta distopia assustadora marcou toda uma gera��o de leitores. Em uma sociedade extremamente regulada e aterrorizada por um regime totalitǭrio Winston Smith se sente encurralado. Funcionǭrio p�blico no MinistǸrio da Verdade onde trabalha alterando documentos para atender aos interesses do Partido ele se v� desiludido com o sistema e com a pr��pria exist�ncia. O desejo de se rebelar porǸm esbarra na constante vigil�ncia das teletelas e no aparato repressivo do governo que transformou a liberdade e a individualidade em crimes e persegue quem ousa desafiar as suas regras. Ao se aventurar em um romance secreto com Julia com quem partilha o desprezo pelo Partido Winston percebe que sua �nsia pela verdade pode se tornar uma possibilidade real de mudan��a. Mas combater o regime n�o serǭ nada fǭcil e o Grande Irm�o cobrarǭ seu pre��o. ALEPH unknown

Burmese Days
London: Gollancz 1935. A first edition first printing of 'Burmese Days' published by Gollancz in 1935. A very good - spotting to the prelims and to the page edges - some light staining to the boards. No inscriptions - some wear to the corners. Burmese Days is a novel by George Orwell published in 1934. Set in 1920s British-occupied Burma it offers a critique of British colonialism. The story revolves around John Flory a disillusioned British timber merchant who befriends Dr. Veraswami a local Indian doctor. Flory's struggle against the racist attitudes of his fellow Europeans particularly the bigoted U Po Kyin forms the novel's core conflict. Flory's relationship with Elizabeth Lackersteen a young Englishwoman adds personal drama to his ethical dilemmas. The novel portrays the corrupt and oppressive nature of colonial rule highlighting the moral and spiritual decay it causes in both the colonisers and the colonised. Orwell drawing on his own experiences as a police officer in Burma uses Burmese Days to explore themes of power racism and the impact of imperialism on individual lives. Gollancz hardcover

ORWELL, George
Burmese Days.
London: Victor Gollancz 1935. His first work of fiction First British edition of the author's first novel and second book following Down and Out in Paris and London 1933. Burmese Days was based on Orwell's service in the Indian Imperial Police in Burma from 1922 to 1927. The work was initially rejected by Gollancz amid concerns that its caustic critique of colonialism might be considered libellous to those portrayed so it was published in America the year previous to its publication in Britain. For the British edition Orwell changed the names of characters based on real people and wrote a new author's note spuriously claiming that "all the characters in this book are entirely fictitious". Cyril Connolly reviewed Burmese Days as "an admirable novel. It is a crisp fierce and almost boisterous attack on the Anglo-Indian. The author loves Burma he goes to great length to describe the vices of the Burmese and the horror of the climate but he loves it and nothing can palliate for him the presence of a handful of inefficient complacent public school types who make their living there. I liked it and recommend it to anyone who enjoys a spate of efficient indignation graphic description excellent narrative excitement and irony tempered with vitriol" New Statesman and Nation p. 18. Octavo. Original black cloth spine lettered in green. Cloth a little rubbed spine leaning extremities slightly bumped with occasional spots of wear ring stains to rear cover: a very good copy.
