Shooting an Elephant

Shooting an Elephant tells the story of a police officer in Burma who is called upon to shoot an aggressive elephant. Loosely based on Orwell's own experiences, the tightly written essay weaves together fact and fiction indistinguishably, and leaves the reader contemplating the heavy topic of colonialism.

Shooting an Elephant spune povestea unui ofiter de politie din Birmania, care este chemat sa impuste un elefant agresiv. Bazat liber pe experientele lui Orwell, eseul bine scris impleteste real si fictiune in mod indistinguit si il lasa pe cititor sa se gandeasca la subiectul greu al colonialismului.
