Such, Such Were the Joys

Reflecting on his childhood education at a strict English preparatory school, George Orwell delves into the harsh realities and lasting scars of an oppressive system. In Such, Such Were the Joys, he lays bare the cruelty and class prejudice embedded in the British educational system, exploring how early experiences of injustice shape one’s understanding of authority and morality. With his characteristic clarity and unflinching honesty, Orwell offers a compelling critique of the institutions that mold society's future.

GEORGE ORWELL was born in India in 1903 and passed away in London in 1950. As a journalist, critic, and author, he was a sharp commentator on his era and its political conditions and consequences.

    George Orwell

    George Orwell, the pseudonym of Eric Arthur Blair, was born in Bengal, India, in 1903. He was educated at Eton, became a policeman in Burma but suffered and studied poverty. His great works, Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four, are a product of his hatred of totalitarianism. His legacy of writing and political thought is much admired today.
