I loved the book, all the way up until about the last 3 or so chapters. He just got a bit repetitive talking about his high school life. Despite the repetition, it was very interesting. Thoroughly enjoyed getting inside the head of Mr Orwell. I love hearing perspectives on how life used to be in the 1910s and even 1930s/1940s. Especially Orwell's ideas on how society would further progress from the World Wars, and what the future held. Great narrative and biography of Orwell's life and the triumphs of being a writer.
