Down and Out in Paris and London by George Orwell

I read this in September 2013
It was a Waterstones Bury St Edmunds Book Club chioce.
I had read this years and years ago.  I had forgotten how readable George Orwell books are.  I enjoyed this dispute it's grim subject matter.  Ok we all know GO was an Eton boy and well heeled but he did actually live as a down and out so must be commended for that.
It made me understand teh hardship of the tramps lives - many tramps were still around when I was growing up (I lived near a Rowton House)
Very moving and interesting...
