   Hi all,   
      
   In "Oysters and Brown Stout," (Tribune, 1944) Orwell wrote,   
      
   "G.K. Chesterton said once that every novelist writes one book whose titles   
   seems to be a summing-up of his attitude to life. He instanced, for   
   Dickens, *Great Expectations*, and for Scott, *Tales of a Grandfather*"   
      
   According to this, then, what title would you choose for Orwell himself out   
   of his own books?   
      
   I favor the original title of 1984, *The Last Man in Europe*" (I understand   
   that one has been used for a drama about Orwell's life - see   
   ), or perhaps   
   *Coming Up for Air"   
      
   Any other nominations? :)
