A Clergyman's Daughter chronicles the disorienting journey of Dorothy Hare, a young woman who awakens with amnesia and finds herself cast into the harsh realities of 1930s English society. This poignant narrative uncovers the stark class divisions and the struggles of the working poor, presenting a biting critique of societal hypocrisy and institutional indifference. The novel illustrates the protagonist's descent from a sheltered existence into a world of poverty, hop-picking, and teaching, forcing her to confront the true nature of human resilience and despair. Orwell's sharp prose details the dehumanizing effects of destitution with a powerful, unsentimental gaze, making it a compelling work of social commentary.
