One of the great novels by George Orwell in a complete and unabridged format.
In "Keep the Aspidistra Flying," George Orwell tells the story of Gordon Comstock, a man who renounces the pursuit of money and a conventional life to maintain his artistic integrity. Living in poverty and working in a bookshop, Gordon struggles with the societal pressures to acquire wealth and the impact of his choices on his relationships, particularly with his girlfriend Rosemary. His disdain for the materialistic world is symbolized by the aspidistra, a common, sturdy house plant that represents middle-class respectability. Throughout the novel, Gordon's resolve is tested, and he grapples with his ideals versus the harsh realities of his situation.
