In the fictional district of Kyauktada, based on Kathar, U Po Kyin, a corrupt Burmese magistrate, is planning to destroy the reputation of the Indian Dr Veraswami. The doctor's main protection is his friendship with John Flory who, as a European, has higher prestige. Dr Veraswami wants the privilege of becoming a member of the British club because he thinks that if his standing with the Europeans is good, U Po Kyin's intrigues against him will not prevail. U Po Kyin begins a campaign to persuade the Europeans that the doctor holds disloyal, anti-British opinions, and believes anonymous letters with false stories about the doctor 'will work wonders'.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBBook Series: Oxford World's ClassicsGenre: BiographyTopic: Fiction, Classic FictionAuthor: George OrwellItem Weight: 212gRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
