Thanks for this thread, OP. I just ordered Burmese Days. As an Indian i am ashamed to say there is not much of Orwell being taught in Indian schools. So, taking inspiration from you, i have started a book club in my building. Good Luck to You as well. I guess the idea would be to let people read at their own pace and wait for everyone to catch up. I don't want to rush anyone because reading Orwell for the first time is a once in a lifetime experience.
