Keep The ASPIDISTRA Flying (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789356526976)

In Keep the Aspidistra Flying, a discontented and embittered young man, who believes that "all modern commerce is a swindle," attempts to drop out of the monetary system altogether. He refuses to advance himself in life, obstinately defying pressure from family and friends. He falls willingly into the mire of poverty and self-neglect, until he is trapped by circumstances into embracing the very values that he formerly despised. Gordon Comstock is twenty-nine years old, is well educated, and comes from a middle-class background. As the novel opens, he is working as an assistant in a bookstore in London.
