Tender is the Night : Mjp Publishers : 9789355278814 : 9355278810 : 01 Dec 2023 : ""The Road to Wigan Pier"" by George Orwell is not your typical travelogue. Imagine a journey where the biggest sights are coal mines and the main attraction is the stark reality of working-class life in 1930s England. Orwell, who's more famous for giving us a dystopian future, now brings us a vivid portrayal of a dystopian present (or past, depending on when you're reading this!). Buckle up for a trip through the grim streets of northern England, where the food is bland, the coal dust is plentiful, and the only 'Instagrammable' moments involve poverty and social injustice. It's a unique expedition where Orwell's sharp wit and keen observations turn a grim topic into a compelling read. Forget luxury cruises and beach resorts; this is one 'road trip' that will change the way you see the world - no fancy luggage required!
