Down and Out in Paris and London

Documents the author's 'first contact with poverty'. This title shows a world of unrelenting drudgery and squalor - sleeping in bug-infested hostels and doss houses of last resort, working as a dishwasher in Paris' vile 'Hotel X', surviving on scraps and cigarette butts, living alongside tramps, a star-gazing pavement artist and more.

Documenteaza ,,primul contact al autorului cu saracia". Acest titlu prezinta o lume de munca grea si mizerie neobosita - dormind in pensiuni infestate cu insecte si aziluri de ultima instanta, lucrand ca spalator de vase in josnicul ,,Hotel X" din Paris, supravietuind cu resturi si mucuri de tigara, traind alaturi de vagabonzi, un artist pavaj care priveste stelele si multe altele.
