Description

Volume 14 of The Complete Works of George Orwell

Orwell wrote to his anarchist friend, George Woodcock in December 1942 arguing that 'by working inside an institution like the BBC one can perhaps deodorise it to some extent', and he concluded, 'I consider I have kept our little corner of it fairly clean'.



One of the great triumphs of 20th-century publishing

A scholarly edition of world class
