‎ORWELL George.‎

‎Archive of retained correspondence from the files of his first publisher Victor Gollancz relating to the publication of The Road to Wigan Pier.‎

‎29 Oct 1936-27 Aug 1958. Orwell's classic study of Northern England poverty takes form Housed in a green morocco album with centre tool to spine separated by raised bands by the Chelsea Bindery. Some chips and tears to a few documents but generally in very good condition. Victor Gollancz's archived correspondence regarding the publication of George Orwell's The Road to Wigan Pier including the original contract for the work. Orwell's classic study of industrial poverty in the north of England remains in print today and is among the most esteemed and best-known of his non-fiction books. After Orwell finished Keep the Aspidistra Flying in January 1936 Gollancz - a prominent left-wing publishing house - commissioned him to write a book about the condition of the working class and the unemployed in the north of England and offered him a £500 advance. Orwell spent the next few months in the region writing a diary which formed the basis of the book and worked on it for the rest of the year. The archive of correspondence opens in late October 1936 with Gollancz asking Orwell's literary agent Leonard Moore how the book is coming along. Moore replies that the book is expected in December and that Orwell has now titled it On the Road to Wigan Pier the first word later dropped and that he thinks it is "extraordinarily good". Gollancz replies in early November that he is looking forward to the book and it might be considered for the Left Book Club which would guarantee a large circulation and royalties. He cannot confirm this yet but "it sounds as if it might be just the book that we have been looking for". On 16 December Leonard Moore sent Gollancz the manuscript unfortunately not preserved as with Orwell's other books. Moore says Orwell is soon to go to Spain fighting for the republican cause in the civil war his experiences in which he would later publish in Homage to Catalonia and would like to hear from Gollancz soon. Gollancz telegraphed asking to see Orwell immediately and contacted various people for photographs of northern poverty which he could use to illustrate the book with quite extensive correspondence on the subject here preserved. On Christmas Eve 1936 Gollancz wrote to Orwell offering terms of the proceeds for the ordinary edition colonial sales and a Left Book Club edition. He also notes that they will need a new contract - fiction works were covered under the contract for A Clergyman's Daughter but this is non-fiction and needs new terms. Five days later Moore wrote to accept most of the terms but sought better returns on the colonial sales and a higher advance. He also recommended that the contract should give Gollancz first right on Orwell's next three books. Gollancz responded on 4 January 1937 agreeing to the higher colonial royalties but rejecting a higher advance for now - he will send a higher advance if the title is chosen for the Left Book Club. Moore agreed to these terms on the 11 January. Meanwhile Gollancz wrote to his lawyer Harold Rubinstein asking if the book had any libel problems - Rubinstein outlined a few minor changes but libel concerns were less prevalent here than for some of Orwell's other books and the changes were made without any acrimony. In mid-January the contract was signed a contract here preserved initialled by Orwell's wife Sonia who was acting as Orwell's attorney while he was fighting in Spain. The contract is stapled with a note from 1950 after Orwell's death recording that royalties for some of Orwell's books had reverted to Sonia and that Heath & Co are working as agents for Orwell's estate. On 5 February 1937 Gollancz confirmed to Moore that the work would be chosen as the Left Book Club choice and requested Sonia Orwell's permission to print a cheap edition of part of the book to promote the Club which she agreed to. A month later Moore writes with some anger to see that an excerpt of the book has been published in the News Chronicle without his permission. Gollancz apologetically replies that they allowed a review article with extracts and were unhappy when they saw the extent of quotation but permitted it as it was a leading review. Moore unhappily conceded. At any rate it led to no long lasting bad blood - in May 1937 Orwell wrote to Gollancz here preserved in carbon to say how much he liked Gollancz's introduction to the book. He gives an account of his time in Spain and writes that "I greatly hope I come out of this alive if only to write a book about it". Gollancz thanked him and has heard that he was injured Orwell was shot in the neck on 20 May 1937 and that he sends his best wishes. In August 1937 Orwell wrote to Gollancz again with indignation that the Daily Worker had referenced him saying the working classes smell and asks Gollancz to use his clout to stop the references which he says is a misquote. Orwell believes that this is deliberate libel orchestrated by the British Communist Party as Orwell had served with the anti-Stalinist POUM in Spain. He denies at length that he is a middle class snob. Much of the correspondence in the archive is from individuals and companies wanting to use sections of the book which Gollancz agrees to. On 28 September 1937 it is recorded that Random House do not want the book for a US edition it would not be published in the US until 1958. Several years later in 1944 Gollancz wrote to Moore saying that The Road to Wigan Pier had fallen out of print but they are saving it as part for "our socialist propaganda campaign after the war". Thereafter correspondence is mostly regarding copyright – there is some uncertainty who owns the copyright to the photos used after Gollancz lost the files. It is noted in 1950 following Orwell's death that Heath & Co are now acting as the literary executors and that Sonia Orwell wants the rights to return to her. Finally in 1958 Gollancz took issue with the fact that Harbrace had used his foreword without his permission in their US edition of the book leading to an apology. The archive of Victor Gollancz was sold by the firm's parent company in recent years from whom the correspondence and contract was directly acquired. Full list of contents: 1. Carbon from Gollancz to Orwell's literary agent Leonard Moore 29 October 1936 enquiring whether Orwell is working on any books and when they may be done. 2. Moore's reply 5 November 1935.

‎ORWELL George.‎

‎Archive of retained correspondence from the files of his first publisher Victor Gollancz relating to the publication of Keep the Aspidistra Flying.‎

‎16 Jan 1936-23 June 1944. Orwell's second novel takes form Housed in a green morocco album with centre tool to spine separated by raised bands by the Chelsea Bindery. Some instances of creasing and chipping at extremities one carbon copy quite tatty but generally overall in very good condition. Victor Gollancz's archived correspondence regarding the publication of George Orwell's second novel Keep the Aspidistra Flying. The correspondence often bitter shows how far concerns with libel altered the final text of the novel and how unhappy Orwell was about this; it contains two typed letters two autograph notes and one full autograph letter all signed by Orwell in around four hundred words in his hand. Soon after completing A Clergyman's Daughter Orwell moved to London and took a part-time job in a bookshop in Hampstead. By February 1935 he had begun to write Keep the Aspidistra Flying incorporating his experiences as a bookseller - the career shared by the protagonist Gordon Comstock - and his experience of poverty. Orwell sent the manuscript to Gollancz in January 1936. The archive opens with a carbon copy of a letter from Gollancz to his solicitor Harold Rubinstein 16 January 1936 enclosing the manuscript the manuscript of the novel unfortunately has now been lost and asking for his comments on any possible libel concerns noting that Orwell has got approval from his old employer for the bookshop scenes. On the same date Gollancz wrote to Orwell commending the novel - "I can think of no English novel which deals with this central question of money". He tells him that he is having it checked for libel and says that in his opinion the verbal repetition of the money question should be toned down as overplaying the point but even so sends his congratulations. There then begins what will form the bulk of the archive become a major source of irritation for Orwell and ultimately lead to quite substantial textual changes to the novel - a lengthy exchange between Gollancz his solicitor Orwell and Orwell's literary agent Leonard Moore on the question of libel concerns. On 20 January 1936 Rubinstein replied to Gollancz with a lengthy list of libel concerns mostly concerning Orwell's use in the novel of deliberately banal advertisements - Rubinstein is concerned that they will be seen as too close to existent advertisements. Gollancz forwarded this to Orwell asking him to make changes. Orwell replies the next day accepting most of the changes but does challenge Rubinstein in places and is clearly not too pleased with what he thinks are pedantic alterations. Gollancz checked the revised manuscript with Rubinstein who raised three new concerns still feeling that it may antagonize certain companies who see themselves or their products reflected. Orwell sent a typed letter signed to Gollancz accepting the changes and proposing a meeting including an autograph note signed altering the three concerns - he changes a description of cigarettes from "acrid" to "soothing" deletes the phrase "foul bloody things" and changes an advertisement to "earn five pounds a week in your spare time" which he feels is too general to be attributed to any company. Rubinstein confirmed these changes requesting only one more minor change. Orwell returns the letter with a further signed manuscript note accepting the change and writing that he has moved address. However Orwell's libel woes were not over. On 17 February 1936 Gollancz wrote to Orwell again saying that the whole business of libel is becoming a nightmare and that four books had to be recalled over the last week due to it. He gives a lengthy list of further desired changes. Orwell replies with a lengthy autograph letter signed 18 February 1936 in which he defends his writing. He says he will do what he can "short of ruining the book altogether". However he refuses to make any changes to the character of Mr. McKechnie the bookshop owner rejecting that there are any parallels with his old employer. He also refuses to take out the word "sod" which he has used in his books before and which was used in Robert Graves's Goodbye To All That. Gollancz replied to Orwell on 19 February saying they will accept what he says about Mr. McKechnie but really feel he should take out the word "sod" otherwise the book may be banned from the larger circulating libraries. Orwell responded with an irate telegram the same day: "absolutely impossible make changes suggested would mean complete rewriting am wiring agent". Gollancz wrote to Orwell's literary agent Leonard Moore still on the 19 February asking if he will use his influence to effect the changes which he insists probably correctly are not excessive - "what Orwell is objecting to is really incredibly trivial". Moore's intervened and Orwell did come round to making the changes and replied with a typed letter signed on 24 February: "it seems to me that these alterations spoil the book altogether; however perhaps that is better than being prosecuted for libel". Looking at the textual changes to the final book from these exchanges it does seem that Orwell is being melodramatic - the changes are to the wording of advertisements and so on which are not central to the book's plot or themes and it is very difficult to argue that the book was in any way spoiled. Even so the correspondence does reveal that Orwell was not entirely happy with the novel in its final state a state in which it is still printed and read today a significant detail. Moore wrote to Gollancz on 26 February 1938 setting out why Orwell was unhappy and enclosing an extract from a letter that Orwell had written to Moore in which he said that Gollancz "have utterly ruined the book". Gollancz replied to Moore on 28 February 1936 to state that they do not agree the book has been ruined and that it remains "an extraordinarily brilliant and forceful piece of writing and only the author could detect that any changes had been made". To everyone's dismay libel concerns still continued after more similarities between products in the novel and real products came to light. Gollancz wrote to Moore again on 29 February asking for someone to look at the book again hinting that it might be best if this was done by someone other than Orwell. Moore replied on 4 March saying he will not mention it to Orwell now and will try and avoid doing so. He agrees with Gollancz that the novel is by no means ruined by the changes and says that "authors always feel like that when compelled to use the blue pencil". On the 6 March Gollancz's solicitor Harold Rubinstein recommended new changes which Gollancz regretfully sent on to Moore on the 7 March asking him to speak to Orwell as he "seems to be more amenable in your hands than ours". Orwell replied with a typed letter signed on 11 March making the alterations without any open bitterness this time which concluded the business. The archive then includes the agreement memorandum for the novel - as future novels were covered under the contract signed for A Clergyman's Daughter no full contract was signed: this memorandum only read "2nd Option on Clergyman's Daughter" with a later ink note "Rights reverted 26. 5. 44". This latter note is explained by the next item a letter from Leonard Moore dated 25 May 1944 asking if Penguin can have the book if more editions by Gollancz were not to be forthcoming to which Gollancz agreed on 26 May 1930; there is a further note from Gollancz to Orwell's executors 23 June 1944 saying that the rights have reverted which closes the collection. The archive of Victor Gollancz was sold by the firm's parent company in recent years from whom the correspondence was directly acquired. Full list of contents: 1. Carbon from Gollancz to his solicitor Rubinstein 16 January 1936 enclosing KTAF manuscript and asking for comments on libel. Orwell has asked his former bookshop manager if he has any objections to the bookshop scenes and he has none. A little tatty with repair on verso. 2. Carbon from Gollancz to Orwell 16 January 1936 congratulating him on the novel. He outlines minor libel issues and suggests a reduction in the verbal references to money. 3. Letter from Rubinstein to Gollancz 20 January 1936 raising potential libel concerns. 4. Carbon from Gollancz to Orwell 20 January 1936 enclosing a copy of Rubinstein's comments. 5. A copy of the above letter marked up with manuscript ticks. 6. Two typed pages from Orwell 21 January 1936 making emendations with reference to Rubinstein. Orwell mostly accepts the changes but in places challenges Rubinstein. 7.

Response from Rubinstein 23 January 1936 confirming the alterations but raising three further issues together with copy. 9. Carbon from Gollancz to Orwell 24 January 1936 sending Rubinstein's comments and stating Gollancz agrees with the three further changes. 10. Typed letter signed from Orwell dated 23 January 1936 but after the previous letter sending notes and hoping to have a meeting. Together with an A5 handwritten note signed accepting the three changes. 11. Carbon from Gollancz to Rubinstein 27 January 1936 asking if the text is now okay. 12. Letter from Rubinstein to Gollancz 27 January 1936 saying Orwell's final changes are satisfactory and suggesting one final minor change. Together with three copies of the letter. 13.

Together with an unsigned carbon of Gollancz's letter and a copy of the pages of manuscript that needed correcting with manuscript corrections. 14. Lengthy letter from Gollancz to Orwell 17 February 1936 saying libel is becoming an increasing concern as other books had to be withdrawn. He suggests further changes to the manuscript. Returned by Orwell with annotations accepting and rejecting some changes; a lengthy penciled note at the top of the letter by Orwell signed Eric has been obscured and then erased. 15. Autograph letter signed from Orwell to Gollancz 18 February 1936 defending his writing and saying that he will do what he can short of ruining the book altogether. 16.

Telegram from Orwell to Gollancz 19 February 1936 "Absolutely impossible make changes suggested would mean complete rewriting am wiring agent". 18. Carbon from Gollancz to Orwell's literary agent Leonard Moore 19 February 1936 insisting that the desired changes are not excessive and hoping he will use his influence to effect the changes. 19.

‎Kolgosp Tvarin Animal Farm.‎

‎Munich: Vidavnitstvi Prometei 1947. Octavo. Original pictorial wrappers. Housed in a cloth flat-back box. Staining to covers and contents light creasing to covers yet still a good copy of this fragile book. First Ukrainian edition and the first to include a preface by Orwell. A copy of the first English edition of 1945 fell into the hands of Ihor Shevchenko a son of Polish anti-Bolshevik nationalists who translated the work into Ukrainian. "In April 1946 Shevchenko wrote to Orwell a mourning widower and single parent of adopted baby at that time requesting authorization to publish his Ukrainian translation. He described to him how he had translated the book out loud to a transfixed audience of Ukrainian DPs displaced persons and they had always been puzzled how the West could be so naïve about the Soviet Union and wondered if anyone 'knew the truth'. He concluded: 'Your book has solved that problem. Refugees reacted to the underlying values of the book to the tale 'types' to the underlying convictions of the author and so on. Besides the mood of the book seems to correspond with their own actual state of mind'. While Animal Farm had been a message of hope to the Ukrainian DPs Shevchenko's letter was a message of hope to Orwell who enthusiastically agreed to a Ukrainian translation" Tatara. Orwell contributed a new preface which was his most extensive commentary on the story and his motives for writing it and which is often printed in modern editions of the book to this day. The translator is given pseudonymously as Ivan Cherniatync'kyi on the title page.
