"Inside the Whale" is an essay in three parts written by George Orwell in 1940. It is primarily a review of Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller with Orwell discursing more widely over English literature in the 1920s and 1930s. The biblical story of Jonah and the whale is used as a metaphor for accepting experience without seeking to change it, Jonah inside the whale being comfortably protected from the problems of the outside world. It was published, alongside two other pieces by Orwell, 11 March 1940 by Gollancz in Orwell's first collection of essays, Inside the Whale and Other Essays.

  • "Inside the whale" är en essä i tre delar skriven av George Orwell 1940. Essän kretsar i första hand kring Henry Millers självbiografiska bok Kräftans vändkrets (originaltitel: Tropic of Cancer). Orwell analyserar Millers bok och undersöker vad Miller menar med Paris "post-slump" (efter nedgången/efter depressionen). I den andra delen av essän diskuterar Orwell även olika manliga författare som var populära under 1920- och 1930-talen. (sv)
