Here's a brief summary:

Gordon Comstock, a talented but penniless writer, works in a dingy bookshop in London. He is determined to avoid the monotony of middle-class life and the "aspidistra" - a symbol of respectable, bourgeois existence. Despite his poverty, Gordon is fiercely independent and committed to his art.

However, his life is complicated by his relationship with Rosemary Waterlow, a young woman from a wealthy family. As Gordon navigates his feelings for Rosemary, he must confront the tension between his desire for financial security and his need for artistic expression.

Through Gordon's story, Orwell explores themes of poverty, class, and the struggle for individuality in a society that values conformity. The novel is a powerful commentary on the societal pressures that can stifle creativity and the human spirit.
