1949255Germany: Publisher not identified 1949. Original printed wrappers. Octavo 16.5 x 11.8 cm. 79 pages. Text in Russian. A clean copy in very good condition with a lightly spotted title.<br /> <br /> A Russian edition of Orwell's masterpiece Animal Farm - the most important work of fictional political satire and an exceptional example of a notoriously fragile production. First it appeared in Posev a weekly social and political review Nos. 7-25 1949. In 1950 Posev published the first Russian edition in book form. This unknown edition that doesn't bear Posev's imprint could be either a signal edition published prior to 1950 or intended to be secretly distributed among the Russian Soviet soldiers deployed in German-occupied zones. <br /> <br /> In one of his letters to Gleb Struve George Orwell wrote the following "…The Possev people sent me a complete file of the paper containing your translation of Animal Farm. They now want to bring out an edition in book form to distribute in the Soviet Zone. This of course would cost money as the copies so distributed wouldn't be paid for. Meanwhile my agent tells me that he was already in negotiation with some other Russian publisher to bring out a translation. It's all in the air yet but I've suggested that if he does close with this other publisher your translation should be used as it would save time and I know the translation would be a good one. In that case I suppose you would be paid something – but as I say nothing is settled yet. But at any rate I shall see to it that the book appears in book form even if I have to finance it myself…" letter to Gleb Struve July 1949. <br /> <br /> Scarce. Not in the trade as of December 2020.

BIB-561548Hardcover. Publisher: Natur & Kultur Allmänlitt. Utg. 2015 Hardcover 341 p. ; 22 cm This book is brand new. Original title: Essays Translator: Handberg Peter Language: Svenska --- Information regarding the book: "Varje rad jag har skrivit sedan 1936 har skrivits mot totalitarism och för demokratisk socialism. Min startpunkt är alltid en upplevelse av orättvisa. Jag skriver därför att det finns någon lögn som jag vill avslöja." George Orwell skrev sina samhällskritiska essäer och artiklar under det bruna 30-talet och nattsvarta 40-talet. De präglades djupt av de utmaningar som dessa tider stod inför: nazism och kommunism världskrig och världssamfund kolonialism och internationalism jämlikhet och utstötthet. I detta generösa urval får vi möta Orwells politiska och etiska ställningstaganden som ledde fram till mästerverk som 1984 och Djurfarmen. Här myntar han begreppet "kallt krig" här analyserar han Hitlers Mein Kampf här drar han sig till minnes sin barndoms skola där han mobbades av elever och lärare tillika för att han inte var ett rikemansbarn utan en flitig stipendiat. Med en glasklar prosa och en kompromisslös uppriktighet nagelfar Orwell den värld som han tycker hamnat så snett och snart sagt varje rad skälver av indignation. Förord av Lena Andersson. Den brittiske journalisten George Orwell pseudonym för Eric Blair 19031950 har myntat odödliga uttryck som "storebror ser dig" och "kalla kriget". Han är främst känd för sina samhällskritiska romaner 1984 och Djurfarmen. Originalets titel: Essays Övers. Peter Handberg "Läs denne man - en fantastiskt vass samhällskritiker. Här förklarar han varför han blev socialist och skrev Djurfarmen och 1984." Yukiko Duke SVT Gomorron Sverige "Han är något så sällsynt som en rolig moralist. Ofta kusligt aktuell. Inte bara beroende på tidsandan utan därför att han har den konservatives pessimistiska syn på människan men socialistens tro på det goda." Ulrika Knutsson Expressen hardcover
