Bozo is a London pavement artist and friend of Paddy Jacques’s who was made crippled while working as a house painter. Despite being penniless, Bozo refuses to give in to self-pity. An avowed atheist, he also staunchly eschews any religious-based charity. He takes a sincere interest in the stars, his art, and politics. He has dark curly hair and a hooked nose. In Orwell’s estimation, Bozo is an exceptional man because poverty has not warped his personality.
