A searing account of George Orwell's observations of working-class life in the bleak industrial heartlands of Yorkshire and Lancashire in the 1930s, "The Road to Wigan Pier" is a brilliant and bitter polemic that has lost none of its political impact over time. His graphically unforgettable descriptions of social injustice, cramped slum housing, dangerous mining conditions, squalor, hunger and growing unemployment are written with unblinking honesty, fury and great humanity. It crystallized the ideas that would be found in Orwell's later works and novels, and remains a powerful portrait of poverty, injustice and class divisions in Britain.

英国伟大的人道主义作家、新闻记者、社会评论家。他一生颠沛流离,但始终以敏锐的洞察力和犀利的文笔记录着他所生活的时代,致力于维护人类自由和尊严,揭露、鞭笞专制和极权主义,并提出了超越时代的预言,因此他被尊称为“一代人的冷峻良知”。

对无产阶级的悲惨生活描写很细致,看的时候还是忍不住对比:英国矿工的生活品质要比同期中国底层好多了。这大概也算木桶原理之一种,底层的生活水准可作整体社会发展的参照。跟当代中国相比,矿工的生活水平恐怕也相差不大(不晓得现在用什么技术挖矿),很多阶级原理仍在起作用。对我这种人来说,接触底层的机会无非就是快递保姆而已,这样的著作对我还是有现实意义。 第二部分的自述角度暧昧,对本人阶级的批判相当犀利,总体对现实的论述可视为奥威尔的一种自我建构。
