Keep the Aspidistra Flying in Extra Large Print Summary
|
It’s the 1930s in London. Gordon Comstock is a bright, educated and poor man in his late twenties. He thinks of himself as a poet, but his chief occupation is avoiding success which he believes is selling out. In fact, he wants to think he has taken “not a good job”: as part of his war on money. There are good descriptions of the difficult choices needed when money is scarce. There are several divergent ways of looking at the book: it’s realistic, sarcastic, simplistic, preachy, and political. It’s part of Orwell’s genius that it’s all of these and more. This is an Enhanced Letter Format (ElLF) book. This means there are five versions which you will receive. There is a version in 18 and another in 28 point type. In addition, each type size has a version suitable for printing and one for viewing on a computer screen. These four versions are in PDF format and are accessed from a main menu. In addition there is a version in ASCII for screen readers. Notice: eBook download size will be 3.2 MB |
