About the book

George Orwell's Keep the Aspidistra Flying follows Gordon Comstock, a young man who rejects conventional ambition and attempts to escape what he sees as society's obsession with money. His rebellion gradually leaves him poor, isolated and dependent on others. Orwell uses Gordon's struggles to examine class, dignity, artistic ambition and the difficulty of resisting the practical demands of everyday life.
