Jack Hilton Caliban Shrieks Paperback Book

Witty and unusual George OrwellMagnificent W H AudenA lyrical tour of life as a young workingclass man born into the first days of the 20th century, Caliban Shrieks is a lost masterpiece of 1930s British literature. Caliban Shrieks narrator went from a childhood of poverty, yet joy and freedom, to the punishing grind of factory life and the idiocy of being sent blindly into war. He was turned out of the army a vagrant seeing England from city to city, county to county before being thrust back into an uncertain cycle of working life as it unfolded in the postwar years. A story of men and women lost, wandering and angrily dreaming of a better, fairer England, Hiltons autobiographical novel is a bold modernist retelling of the myth of how we find ourselves disenfranchised from the world and sold into a slavery of our making. | Jack Hilton Caliban Shrieks Paperback Book
