London: Various Publishers 1934-56. First editions of the novels of George Orwell.

An exceptional set rare and desirable. George Orwell is best known for his allegorical novella Animal Farm 1945 and the dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four 1949. Orwell's work remains influential in popular culture and in political culture and the adjective "Orwellian"—describing totalitarian and authoritarian social practices—is part of the English language like many of his neologisms such as "Big Brother" "Thought Police" "Room 101" "Newspeak" "memory hole" "doublethink" and "thoughtcrime". In 2008 The Times named Orwell the second-greatest British writer since 1945. Various Publishers unknown

ORWELL, George
The Road to Wigan Pier.
London: Victor Gollancz Ltd 1937. A handsomely bound copy First edition of Orwell's classic study of poverty in northern England firmly established among Orwell's most powerful non-fiction works. The book was issued to members of Victor Gollancz's Left Book Club as the choice for March 1937 ensuring a large edition. Although Gollancz commissioned Orwell's study the latter half of the book - in which Orwell condemns British socialist intellectuals and their adherence to the Soviet Union - dismayed Gollancz and the Left Book Club committee. Gollancz published the book in its entirety but with his own preface taking issue with many of Orwell's claims. Octavo 211 x 133. With 16 half-tone photographic plates. Finely bound by the Chelsea Bindery in green morocco spine lettered in gilt raised bands twin rule to turn-ins gilt blue and green patterned endpapers gilt edges. A fine copy. Fenwick A5a; Lewis p. 140. hardcover

Orwell, George (pseudonym of Eric Arthur Blair, 1903-50)
THE ROAD TO WIGAN PIER with a Foreword by Victor Gollancz
New York: Harcourt Brace and Company 1958. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Although Orwell grew up in the relative comfort of the English middle class his socialist convictions and general sense of fairness led him to hate his country's deeply ingrained class structure. That perspective permeates this book but the most striking elements are the quotidian details of life that Orwell observes in his first-person account of the lives of coal miners and others in the poor north of England. Octavo: xxiv 264 pp. with 32 pp. of photographs. Original blue cloth binding with silver-stamped titles. Faint spot to the top edge with some light toning along the extremities of the boards. The dust jacket is moderately shelfworn with a crease to the spine and a short tear to the top of the front panel that has been mended with tape on the verso; else very good.

ORWELL, George
Typed letter signed to Anthony Powell arranging a meeting.
Cranham: 10 February 1949. From one novelist to another A testament to the literary and personal friendship between two of the leading English novelists of the 20th century: Orwell writes to Powell while being treated at Cotswold Sanatorium for the tuberculosis that would kill him a year later. Orwell writes in reply to Powell's letter suggesting a visit from himself and Malcolm Muggeridge. "It's very tough of you to decide to walk I suppose you know this place is 900 feet up and I trust you'll have decent weather". Orwell specifies times and that he'll arrange a car to catch the 18:30 return train. "I've no doubt you could get dinner in the train going back but perhaps it's wise to carry food. In Scotland one gets into the habit of never going anywhere without a 'piece' as they call it and often I've been glad of it. So looking forward to seeing you both". Although only two years apart at Eton Powell and Orwell did not meet until 1941 when they were introduced by mutual friend Cyril Connolly. Powell had read Down and Out in Paris and London and had been sufficiently impressed by Keep the Aspidistra Flying to write on Connolly's encouragement a fan letter and to send a copy of his satirical Scottish poem Caledonia. Orwell replied politely but no further correspondence ensued until their meeting some five years later. Despite their radically differing outlooks and political views Orwell's friendship with Powell grew into one of the most substantial of his adult life. Powell and Malcolm Muggeridge were Orwell's closest literary friends during his final illness visiting and corresponding regularly and were the principal organizers of his funeral. Single sheet 249 x 203 mm typed on recto only letterhead of Cotswold Sanatorium in Cranham. Light creasing from general handling and as originally folded a little toned; in excellent condition. unknown
