The Road to Wigan Pier - Book by George Orwell
George Orwell's The Road to Wigan Pier (1937) is a powerful social critique of poverty and class struggle in industrial England. Based on Orwell’s firsthand observations, the book's first half documents the harsh living and working conditions of coal miners in northern England. The second half is a personal and political reflection on socialism, class divisions, and the barriers to social change. Orwell criticizes both the ruling elite and the middle-class intellectuals who fail to connect with the working class. A blend of reportage and political analysis, the book remains a significant work on economic injustice and class consciousness.Original Language: English
