I'm going to be weird and say that my favourite of Orwell's novels is Keep the Aspdistra Flying, though the one I've actually read the most number of times is the wonderfully depressing Burmese Days.

I can't stand depressing books. I got to page one of Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, and gave up there and then.
