História de um homem comum

The novel captures a sense of disillusionment and longing that feels surprisingly relevant now. Did anyone else feel a connection to today's social climate while reading?

Considering Orwell's background and other works, I wonder what led him to focus on this introspective narrative and the idea of 'coming up for air.'

His yearning for simplicity and peace contrasted with the chaos of the world around him. It made me wonder how personal trauma influences our views of society.
