Human Voices Wake Us

From the Archives: George Orwell Down in the Mines


Listen Later

A repeat of an episode first posted on 11/9/2020: A reading from George Orwell’s 1937 book, The Road to Wigan Pier. This long passage comes from the handful of trips he took down into the coal mines of northern England, and the horrible conditions there.

Any comments, or suggestions for readings I should make in later episodes, can be emailed to [email protected].

I assume that the small amount of work presented in each episode constitutes fair use. Publishers, authors, or other copyright holders who would prefer to not have their work presented here can also email me at [email protected], and I will remove the episode immediately.
