Burmese Years

About This Novel

"Burmese Days" was published in 1934 and is George Orwell's first novel. The British India described in the novel is such a picture: the white master spends his time drinking and having fun, and is corrupt; the white lady is uneducated and greedy for vanity; the natives are intrigues and flattery; but there is such a white master, Sabu (master) - Flory, who hates imperialism and can't stand his people being kings and dominators in other people's land; but the cowardice in his bones makes him cower and dare not stand up to resist. Because he was afraid of "losing the whole world in order to redeem his soul," he could only "watch his life wasted and corrupted in this shameful and terrible futility."
