Unlock the more straightforward side of Coming Up for Air with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!This engaging summary presents an analysis of Coming Up for Air by George Orwell, which follows the middle-aged insurance salesman George Bowling as he tries to recapture the idyllic feelings of his childhood. However, he soon comes to realise that the England of the past has disappeared forever, swept away by the new apathetic consumer society. Moreover, tensions are mounting in Europe as authoritarian parties rise to power, and George, who fought and was wounded in the First World War, sees with foreboding that another immense conflict is on the horizon. Indeed, Coming Up for Air was published in 1938, just a year before the outbreak of the Second World War, and can be seen as the forerunner of Orwell's later classics 1984 and Animal Farm.Find out everything you need to know about Coming Up for Air in a fraction of the time!This in-depth and informative reading guide brings you:* A complete plot summary* Character studies* Key themes and symbols* Questions for further reflectionWhy choose BrightSummaries.com?Available in print and digital format, our publications are designed to accompany you on your reading journey.
