As a struggling writer in his twenties, Orwell lived as a downandout among the poorest members of society. In this, his early memoir, Orwell recalls with vivid clarity his time working as a penniless dishwasher in Paris, pawning clothes to buy a days worth of bread and wine, sleeping in buginfested bunks, trading survival skills and cigarette butts with fellow tramps, and trudging between Londons workhouse spikes for a few hours sleep and tea. With all of the sensitivity and compassion that Orwell is known and loved for, he exposed the hardships of poverty and gave readers an unprecedented look at life lived on the fringes of society.
