A review by rosekk
Decline of the English Murder by George Orwell

4.0

It's odd to read essays that in places are incredibly outdated (owing to having been written so long ago), but which in other places remain relevant. This was particularly striking in the piece about Boys' Weeklies - if those even exist anymore, then they certainly don't occupy the same status as they did in Orwell's day, but some of the commentary he supplies could just as easily be said about plenty of modern entertainment.
