Orwell's narrative comes from first-hand experience, which not only documents but also humanizes the struggles of the impoverish in two major European cities. This isn't just a memoir; it's a gritty social commentary that serves as a stark reminder of the thin lines between stability and destitution, inviting introspection about society and empathy for the downtrodden. If you're intrigued by the personal plights within a historical context, this book could give you a profound perspective.

Any Baedeker will tell us where we ought to travel, but only Alain de Botton will tell us how and why. With the same intelligence and insouciant charm he brought to How Proust Can Save Your Life, de Botton considers the pleasures of anticipation; the allure of the exotic, and the value of noticing everything from a seascape in Barbados to the takeoffs at Heathrow. Even as de Botton takes the reader along on his own peregrinations, he also cites such distinguished fellow-travelers as Baudelaire, Wordsworth, Van Gogh, the biologist Alexander von Humboldt, and the 18th-century eccentric Xavier de Maistre, who catalogued the wonders of his bedroom. The Art of Travel is a wise and utterly original book. Don’t leave home without it.
