Burmese Days by George Orwell
Burmese Days by George Orwell
George Orwell
Burmese Days is set in 1920s imperial Burma, in the fictional district of Kyauktada, based on Kathar (formerly spelled Katha), a town where Orwell served. Like the fictional town, it is the head of a branch railway line above Mandalay on the Ayeyarwady (Irrawaddy) River. As the story opens, U Po Kyin, a corrupt Burmese magistrate, is planning to destroy the reputation of the Indian, Dr Veraswami.
The doctor hopes for help from his friend John Flory who, as a pukka sahib (European white man), has higher prestige.
