Description
‘Coming up for Air’, Written by George Orwell
THE QUAKING CONFUSION OF ENGLAND IN 1939.
The First World War, eighteen years in insurance, and marriage to the joyless Hilda have been no more than death in life to George Bowling.
This and fear of another war take his mind back to the peace of his childhood in a small country town.
But his return journey to Lower Binfield brings complete disillusionment, and once again he settles into the ooze of routine and frustration with the shadow of Nineteen Eighty-Four looming up in the distance.
