Download or read book Finding George Orwell in Burma written by Emma Larkin and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-03-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating political travelogue that traces the life and work of George Orwell, author of 1984 and ANIMAL FARM, in Southeast Asia Over the years the American writer Emma Larkin has spent traveling in Burma, also known as Myanmar, she's come to know all too well the many ways this brutal police state can be described as "Orwellian." The life of the mind exists in a state of siege in Burma, and it long has. But Burma's connection to George Orwell is not merely metaphorical; it is much deeper and more real. Orwell's mother was born in Burma, at the height of the British raj, and Orwell was fundamentally shaped by his experiences in Burma as a young man working for the British Imperial Police. When Orwell died, the novel-in-progress on his desk was set in Burma. It is the place George Orwell's work holds in Burma today, however, that most struck Emma Larkin. She was frequently told by Burmese acquaintances that Orwell did not write one book about their country - his first novel, Burmese Days - but in fact he wrote three, the "trilogy" that included Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four. When Larkin quietly asked one Burmese intellectual if he knew the work of George Orwell, he stared blankly for a moment and then said, "Ah, you mean the prophet!" In one of the most intrepid political travelogues in recent memory, Emma Larkin tells of the year she spent traveling through Burma using the life and work of George Orwell as her compass. Going from Mandalay and Rangoon to poor delta backwaters and up to the old hill-station towns in the mountains of Burma's far north, Larkin visits the places where Orwell worked and lived, and the places his books live still. She brings to vivid life a country and a people cut off from the rest of the world, and from one another, by the ruling military junta and its vast network of spies and informers. Using Orwell enables her to show, effortlessly, the weight of the colonial experience on Burma today, the ghosts of which are invisible and everywhere. More important, she finds that the path she charts leads her to the people who have found ways to somehow resist the soul-crushing effects of life in this most cruel police state. And George Orwell's moral clarity, hatred of injustice, and keen powers of observation serve as the author's compass in another sense too: they are qualities she shares and they suffuse her book - the keenest and finest reckoning with life in this police state that has yet been written.

Download or read book Bewitched by Burma written by Anne Carter and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2012 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning fifty years from the days of the British Raj to the granting of full independence after the Japanese conflict, Bewitched by Burma tells a vivid and often humorous tale of the challenges of life in Burma faced by Anglican missionaries. Setting out on the five-week sea passage to Burma, these men and women left comfortable but boring lives in Edwardian Britain in search of adventure. Their task was to preach Christianity in a Buddhist land about which they knew little. Once there, they rapidly fell in love with the country, its rich culture and warm people, whom they grew to respect deeply. From descriptions of tea on the lawn with the Viceroy to daily struggles with insects, illness and climate, and adventures with bullock carts and early motor cars, their letters home contain fascinating vignettes of a long-extinct colonial way of life alongside a daily life in Burma which is largely unchanged today.Author and narrator Anne starts the book with stories of the myths and legends lying behind the country’s past, and recounts many memories from her childhood in Burma. She also gives a key insight into its politics, history and geography, and reproduces a vivid first-hand account of the devastating trek from Burma to India to escape the Japanese occupation, written in the mid-1940s. Her husband shared her interest in Burma, having served there in the Indian army, and some of his memories are included.As Aung San Suu Kyi takes her rightful seat in parliament and Myanmar re-emerges onto the world stage after many decades of exclusion, Bewitched by Burma gives a unique insight into the country’s complex past. The book will appeal equally to today’s travellers and business people, to families of servicemen who served there, and to those interested in the early life of the church - and even in the introduction of Girlguiding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After her mother was killed by a landmine while fleeing from the soldiers, a Burmese girl joins a Resistance group based on the Burmese-Thai border which employs violence as the chief weapon against tyranny. But the violence is not the same as terrorism, as the group operate by abiding the tough-minded pragmatism of Aung San Suu Kyi, known as ‘the Lady’. Of Crime and Humanity seeks to enlighten readers, through the telling of the adventure of a Burmese girl, of what it is like to be a contemporary of the Lady, and more importantly how Man is held in bitter bondage to his time rigidly and tragically. If there’s an answer to the Lady’s dramatic transformation, it is based on an understanding of compassion and human nature in its complexity and darkness. Based on true events of the Burmese revolutionary days, Of Crime and Humanity describes what it is like being a Burmese girl living under military brutalisation.

Book excerpt: Raised in wealth and privilege in Southern California, the last thing Sharon Porterfield ever expected was to become a Christian missionary in the hostile, unforgiving jungles of Southeast Asia. Her parents were atheists, but something inside her told her that there had to be a Creator. After years of searching and study, she became a committed Christian. In her mid-thirties she found a church she loved and ministered to at-risk women. She thought she had found her pect place in Christian service. She was wrong. One night a missionary spoke at her church. Disintered and half listening, she suddenly felt God pull her to invesigate. Seemingly against her will, she was strongly compelled to visit Burma and the Karen people who live there. She gave in and went. The country was hot, humid, and alive with scorpions and malaria infected mosquitoes, and the Burmese Army was always a threat, periodically launching genocidal attacks against the Karen. The most basic of creature comforts, like indoor toilets and easy access to food, were absent. Despite all this, Sharon fell in love with the Karen people and knew this was going to be her life's work, because God Sent her.
