Özet
 A travelogue exploring the life and work of George Orwell through the places he lived, worked and wrote

Following in the footsteps of his literary hero, researcher and historian Oliver Lewis set out to visit all the places to have inspired and been lived in by George Orwell.

Over three years he travelled from Wigan to Catalonia, Paris to Motihari, Marrakesh to Eton, and in each location explored both how Orwell experienced the place, and how the place now remembers him as a literary icon.

Beginning in Northern India, where Orwell was born in 1903, and ending in the Oxfordshire village of Sutton Courtenay, where he was laid to rest in 1950, The Orwell Tour offers an accessible and informative new biography of Orwell through the lens of place.©2023 Oliver Lewis (P)2023 W.

Not a bad narrator but do wish he wouldn't call a Lych Gate a Lynch Gate. A lych gate is called that because the name comes from the Old English/Saxon word "lych" (or "lic"), meaning corpse or body, combined with "gate," so it literally means "corpse gate" not a gate you hanged someone from which is what Lynch means. A silly error

Good on the Whole

I found this book enjoyable, informative, and educational as I think many followers of George Orwell will.
A nice mixture of travelogue ,covering the places he lived and a short biography of his life and his works.
Nicely narrated by the author.

Enjoyable and informative.
