Working with all the different movie companies is exciting and comes with a lot of perks. However, when the job forces her to leave home during the holidays, it produces a mixed bag of emotions. Granted someone has to get everything arranged before the crews flood the area in January. It should be a simple task, and while she's at it, she can enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime all-expense-paid tour of Europe. As the saying goes, however, "the best-laid plans often go astray."

Download or read book George Orwell As I please 1943 1946 written by George Orwell and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 2000 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Orwell is a major figure in twentieth-century literature. The author of Down and Out in Paris and London, Nineteen Eighty-four, and Animal Farm, he published ten books and two collections of essays during his lifetime - but in terms of actual words, produced much more than seems possible for someone who died at the age of forty-six and was often struggling against poverty and ill health. His essays, letters, and journalism are among the most memorable, lucid, and intelligent ever written, the work of a master craftsman and a brilliant mind. Taken as a whole they form an essential collection, and read in toto and sequentially, they provide a remarkably literary self-portrait of an engaged, and consistently engaging, writer. Here, in four volumes, is the best selection of his nonfiction writing now available, a trove of letters, essays, reviews, and journalism that is breathtaking in its scope and eclectic passions.
