It's a novel I come back to. I find it strangely comforting, despite its bleak and uncompromising depiction of poverty and bitterness. It's perhaps because, in the character of Gordon Comstock, Orwell instills his own keen sense of distaste and anger at a bankrupt and broken society, and portrays an impoverished life much as Orwell himself experienced and witnessed - it feels lived, heart-felt. The Capitalist machine, money, inequality, privilege, the human condition, Gordon rages impotently against it all.He's not actually a particularly sympathetic character, Comstock, which rather adds to the novel's authenticity. (The predicament of the poor and thwarted does not, in my opinion, lend itself to a spotless, generous character.) Comstock is at turns selfish, suspicious and spiteful. And, what's more, utterly ungrateful for the morsels of friendship and love in his possession. He has a bitter reproach for everyone and everything. It's hard to like him. But, then again, it's hard not to agree with a lot of what he says. It's raw, impassioned and disarmingly honest.The writing, for me, is at the summit of 20th Century prose. Orwell has a fluent, unadorned, style - journalistic, you might say, with a literary richness to hand, when called for. It's compelling, accessible, and surprises; brings the most humble setting and circumstances to vivid life; it excoriates, it touches, it satisfies. This novel, along with '1984', must count among the all-time masterpieces of British fiction.

Next up in the book group’s between-the-wars season. In 1930s London, Gordon Comstock, in his late twenties, educated and moderately talented, vows to escape ‘the money-code’, gives up a job in advertising to work in a bookshop for £2 a week and sets about writing poetry in a rented garret. (George Orwell himself led a similar existence at the time.) The way Gordon’s principled poverty blights his relationships is brilliantly and minutely shown. The emotional blackmail it exerts on his girlfriend, Rosemary, drove me to fury, but Gordon, concerned only with his own pride and self-pity, is unaware. I hated him most of the way through, even as he held my attention – an example of how an unlikable protagonist can work if he and his dilemmas are interesting and credible and the author clearly knows he’s unlikable. No spoiler as to how things turn out. Some great writing; a very good book that will stay with me.

Gordon Comstock is a man who seems determined to be unhappy. Fast approaching middle age, he is stuck in a terrible rut and is obsessed with money - but he doesn't love it. He absolutely hates how it seems to control everything he does in life. He is desperate to get paid work as a writer of poetry, but he just keeps receiving rejection letter after rejection letter, and he is resigned to a life of poverty and boredom, holding down a mundane job in the library. His anti-Capitalist stance even gets in the way of him having a loving relationship with his girlfriend Rosemary as he cannot afford (or so he thinks) to treat her to nice things such as meals out. She insists that it does not matter, but he is so wrapped up in his battle with the 'money god' that he just ruins any chance of happiness he gets. Gordon thinks he can lead a happy lifestyle through writing poetry, and not be a slave to capitalism, but as he sinks further and further into the slough of despond he starts to question his ideals. The curious title of the book 'Keep the Aspidistra flying' refers to the plant that could frequently be found in middle-class households during the Victorian era. It is a symbol of self-preservation and pride, something Gordon is desperate to have but is so overwhelmed by negativity that he doesn't even realise he already has a lot going for him.
