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

ORWELL, George; COLE, G D H; WILLIAMS, Francis; LASKI, Harold; SUTHERLAND, Mary:
VICTORY OR VESTED INTEREST
London: George Routledge and Sons. 1942. First edition in book form first printing. First edition in book form first printing. Publisher's original light brown cloth with black titles to the spine in dustwrapper. A very good copy the binding square and firm the cloth bright and fresh. Printed on war economy paper. The contents spotted to the endpapers are otherwise clean and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the rubbed nicked and darkened dustwrapper that has three short closed tears secured with small pieces of tape to the underside and some chipping to the spine tips. Not price-clipped 5s net to the lower front flap. Scarce. A thought-provoking analysis of wartime challenges societal dynamics and the pursuit of victory while navigating vested interests. Based on a series of lectures delivered in 1941 under the auspices of the Fabian Society. Contributors include: G. D. H. Cole 'Private Monopoly or Public Service'; Francis Williams 'Equality of Sacrifice'; Professor Harold Laski 'Democracy in War-Time'; Mary Sutherland 'Women and the War'; George Orwell 'Culture and Democracy'. Orwell delivered his lecture from notes and refused to provide a script. This subsequent publication incurred his ire directed towards the Fabian Society who had borne the responsibility for passing the stenographer's script "grossly altered without my knowledge" to George Routledge. 'Victory of Vested Interest' was first published on the 15th May 1942 in an edition of 6311 copies. Fenwick B.17. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request. Lucius Books welcomes direct contact with our customers. London: George Routledge and Sons. 1942 hardcover
