forkdogforkfruit 's review for:

Shooting an Elephant by George Orwell
4.0

A wonderful insight into Orwell. His views and insights are often indispensable and hit the nail right on the head.
I personally find it remarkable that much of what he wrote regarding politics not only is still correct today but also apparently repeating itself in current days.
Overall a worthwhile read even if I felt I had to skip over the essay about Dickens because I admit, to much shame, that I do not have a decent knowledge of his subject matter and felt that reading about a person with whom's work I am unfamiliar with would be unfair and not a valuable use of my own time.
