Dorothy Hare is the perfect clergyman's daughter-dutiful, self-sacrificing, and deeply devoted to her father's parish. But when a sudden bout of amnesia leaves her lost and penniless in London, she is thrust into a world of hardship she never imagined. Forced to survive as a beggar, a hop-picker, and a struggling schoolteacher, Dorothy's journey strips away the comforts of her past and challenges everything she thought she knew about faith, duty, and identity.
In this gripping and socially charged novel, George Orwell explores the brutal realities of poverty, class struggle, and the rigid expectations placed on women in 1930s England. A Clergyman's Daughter is a powerful, thought-provoking tale of resilience and self-discovery from one of the 20th century's most influential writers.
