is a narrative essay about Orwell's time as a police officer for the British Raj in colonial Burma. The essay delves into an inner conflict that Orwell experiences in his role of representing the British Empire and upholding the law. At the opening of the essay Orwell explains that he is opposed to the British colonial project in Burma. In explicit terms he says that he's on the side of the Burmese people, who he feels are oppressed by colonial rule. As a police officer he sees the brutalities of the imperial project up close and first hand. He resents the British presence in the country.

"Shooting an Elephant"

Explanation:

George Orwell wrote his "Shooting an Elephant and Other Essays" in a narrative form. The essay was about the unjust shooting of an elephant, that too, not a wild one but a tame elephant.

The essay may also be metaphorically taken as the two identities of British imperialism. While the elephant represents the colonies, the victims of its imperialist actions, the executioner of the elephant represents the British authority, power, the imperial country/ kingdom. The narrative essay is Orwell's way of presenting the conflict between the two sides of imperialism, the conflict that he also faced as a police officer under the British but empathize with the colonies.

Thus, the correct answer is "Shooting an Elephant".
