La Hija del Clerigo / A Clergyman’s Daughter
George Orwell
La hija del clerigo es una de las novelas menos conocidas de George Orwell, pero sin duda una de las mejores y mas experimentales. Ambientada en la decada de los anos treinta, cuenta la dura vida de la hija de un clerigo, maltratada y condenada a ser una criada hasta que un brusco cambio la llevara inesperadamente a Londres, donde vivira una vida totalmente distinta, exiliada incluso de su propia memoria.
Retrato de la Inglaterra de la gran depresion, esta novela es una de las obras esenciales del realismo ingles de principios del siglo XX.

She then has a series of unexpected and degrading adventures after becoming a victim of amnesia. Though she regains her life as a clergyman’s daughter, she has lost her faith.
