A review by ljutavidra
The Road to Wigan Pier by George Orwell

2.0

Not my cup of tea definitivno. Ovo je zapravo nefikcija/autobiografsko delo. Tema je život rudara u ruralnoj Engleskoj i o slamovima, tako da ovo preporučujem ljudima koje to naročito zanima. Imala sam utisak da čitam ispitnu literaturu iz TDSS-a (fellow sociologists će razumeti).

Citat koji sam uspela da zaboravim da dodam i koji sumira sve: 'In a way it is humiliating to watch coal-miners working. It raises in you a momentary doubt about your own status as an intellectual and a superior person generally. For it is brought home to you, at least while you are watching, that it is only because miners sweat their guts out that superior persons can remain superior.'
