George Orwell 
Burmese Days [EPUB ebook] 

This book is based on George Orwell’s real experience of being stationed in Burma in his early years. It is also Orwell’s first full-length novel. "I wanted to write enormous naturalistic novels with unhappy endings, full of detailed descriptions and arresting similes, and also full of purple passages in which my words were used partly for the sake of their sound. And in fact my first complete novel, Burmese Days is rather that kind of book." -George Orwell
