About The Book: This book presents an analysis of Burmese Days by George Orwell, which is based on the writer’s own experiences as a member of the British Indian Imperial Police in the 1920s. It depicts a brutally divided society, in which racism is endemic and the natives are widely seen as inherently inferior to the white European colonisers. In this atmosphere, corruption and scheming flourish, leaving the novel’s protagonist, the timber merchant John Flory, deeply disillusioned and alienated. Burmese Days is Orwell’s earliest novel. About The Author: George Orwell, ( 1903 – 1950 ) born Eric Arthur Blair, was a prominent English writer known for his clear, critical prose and his staunch opposition to totalitarianism, while advocating for democratic socialism. His diverse body of work encompassed literary criticism, poetry, fiction, and polemical journalism. Notable creations include the allegorical "Animal Farm" (1945) and the dystopian classic "Nineteen Eighty-Four" (1949). His non-fiction works, such as "The Road to Wigan Pier" and "Homage to Catalonia," offered insightful accounts of working-class life and his experiences in the Spanish Civil War. Orwell's life journey took him from India to England, where he adopted the pen name George Orwell. His enduring impact on language and culture is evident in terms like "Orwellian." In 2008, he was ranked as the second greatest British writer since 1945 by The Times.
