A startling and revelatory examination of Nabokov’s life and works—notably Pale Fire and Lolita—bringing new insight into one of the twentieth century’s most enigmatic authors. Novelist Vladimir Nabokov witnessed the horrors of his century, escaping Revolutionary Russia then Germany under Hitler, and fleeing France with his Jewish wife and son just weeks before Paris fell to the Nazis. He repeatedly faced accusations of turning a blind eye to human suffering to write artful tales of depravity.
Радиоспектакль BBC о забавных и душераздирающих наблюдениях из жизненого опыта Орвелла, жившего ниже черты бедности в двух из самых богатых городах мира, Париже и Лондоне.
A funny and heartbreaking account of Orwell's experience living below the poverty line in two of the world's richest cities. Written when he was a struggling writer in his 20s, he observes bug-infested hostels and doss houses, work as a dishwasher in Paris, surviving on scraps and cigarette butts, living alongside tramps, a star-gazing pavement artist and a starving Russian ex-army captain. He exposed a shocking, previously hidden world to his readers. REUPLOAD NEEDED
