9788535910773CIA DAS LETRAS. new. Ainda que menos conhecido do que A revolu��o dos bichos de 1945 e 1984 de 1949 este livro mant�m a escrita v�vida e ir�nica de George Orwell. Em A flor da Inglaterra Keep the aspidistra flying o consagrado autor exp�e corajosamente as chagas de uma sociedade desigual sem apelar para o sentimentalismo a autocomplac�ncia ou f�rmulas simplistas de nenhuma esp�cie. Londres 1934. Gordon Comstock declara guerra ao ""deus-dinheiro"". Chegando aos trinta anos maltratado pela pobreza e com aspira��es po�ticas muito mais altas que a sua capacidade de realiz�-las ele desiste de um ""bom emprego"" em uma ag�ncia de publicidade para se tornar um modesto vendedor de uma pequena livraria. Sempre na m�ngua de dinheiro mas orgulhoso demais para aceitar empr�stimos de um amigo rico Gordon inicia um decl�nio r�pido e aparentemente sem volta ao inferno da pobreza extrema e da solid�o que ela acarreta. Nos quartos de pens�o esqu�lidos que habita bem como por toda parte do mundinho med�ocre da classe m�dia baixa Gordon topa a todo instante com uma planta dom�stica que ele elege s�mbolo dessa ordem injusta vazia e massacrante: a aspidistra. Em A flor da Inglaterra George Orwell criou uma esp�cie de s�tira passional matizada de humor seco e cortante sua marca registrada que provoca imediata empatia em qualquer um que j� tenha se visto ��s voltas com a falta do vil metal.

An essential for the Orwell completist. <br/><br/>¶ Published a mere four years following its first appearance in English Secker & Warburg 1945 our offering is the exceedingly rare first printing in the Icelandic language of this seminal work of political satire. Privately published and printed by the multi-talented and committed anti-communist Larus Johannesson printer lawyer and member of the Althing the Icelandic translation would dispense with the original title in favour of Félagi Napóelon: Ævintýri literally Comrade Napoleon: A Fairy Story.

9786587885346TEMPORALIS. new. DOIS CL�SSICOS DA LITERATURA MUNDIAL REUNIDOS EM UM NICO VOLUME! Lidos e discutidos em muitas escolas e universidades nas ltimas geraes como exemplos de peso moral e prescincia pol�tica muito al�m das leituras obrigat�rias ainda so explorados por prazer emoo e instruo mesmo por jovens que no tenham sido compelidos a isso. Hoje com a ampla e segura reputao alcanada pelo autor pode ser chocante lembrar que ambas as suas obras-primas quase foram abortadas ao nascer seja por publicaes negadas ou pela destruio da guerra. J� em um passado menos distante esses livros costumavam ser proibidos em pa�ses sob o regime comunista e ainda so ocasionalmente suprimidos em naes de partido nico. Orwell provavelmente no imaginava em vida alcanar tamanha projeo. J� a censura cont�nua o teria surpreendido muito menos. A revoluo dos bichos foi escrita durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial numa �poca em que Londres estava sendo bombardeada pelos nazistas. Orwell desprezava Hitler e o fascismo e tinha lutado como soldado volunt�rio pela Repblica Espanhola mas ele escolheu este momento pouco prop�cio para escrever uma s�tira mortal sobre a iluso do Comunismo Sovi�tico. Em 1984 o autor fez uso extenso de seu pr�prio conhecimento de crueldade. Em sua vida ele testemunhou o comportamento autorit�rio entre meninos em internatos ingleses TEMPORALIS unknown
