Essay Analysis: SOAPSTone and George Orwell


Last Friday we read an essay by George Orwell:  On Shooting An Elephant


The picture above is the author George Orwell.  The essay is a memoir of his days as a police officer in Burma.  He wrote many essays about his life experiences as well as famous satires such as "1984" and "Animal Farm"

When we come back to class we will compare our notes to explore just what this essay is about beyond what the title suggests.
