E-artnow presents to you the complete novels by one of the greatest novelists of English literature. This edition includes: "Burmese Days" – a tale from the waning days of British colonialism, when Burma was ruled from Delhi as a part of British India–a portrait of the dark side of the British Raj. "A Clergyman's Daughter" – which tells the story of Dorothy Hare, the clergyman's daughter of the title, whose life is turned upside down when she suffers an attack of amnesia. "Keep the Aspidistra Flying" – is set in 1930s London. The main theme is Gordon Comstock's romantic ambition to defy worship of the money-god and status, and the dismal life that results. "Coming Up for Air" – Published shortly before the outbreak of World War II, this novel combines premonitions of the impending war with images of an idyllic Thames-side Edwardian era childhood. "Animal Farm" – is an allegorical novel which reflects events leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917 and then on into the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union. "1984" – a political and dystopian science-fiction novel set in Airstrip One, a province of the superstate Oceania. The story is about a mind-numbing world in a state of perpetual war, omnipresent government surveillance and public manipulation.

.....
Ma Kin bent her head over her sewing again, in an obstinate way she had when she disapproved of something that U Po Kyin was doing.
‘But, Ko Po Kyin, where is the need of all this scheming and intriguing? I heard you talking with Ko Ba Sein on the veranda. You are planning some evil against Dr Veraswami. Why do you wish to harm that Indian doctor? He is a good man.’
