'An unrivalled picture of the rumours, suspicions and treachery of
civil war' Antony Beevor Every line of serious work that I have
written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly,
against totalitarianism and for democratic Socialism as I
understand it'. Thus wrote Orwell following his experiences as a
militiaman in the Spanish Civil War, chronicled in Homage to
Catalonia. Here he brings to bear all the force of his humanity,
passion and clarity, describing with bitter intensity the bright
hopes and cynical betrayals of that chaotic episode: the
revolutionary euphoria of Barcelona, the courage of ordinary
Spanish men and women he fought alongside, the terror and confusion
of the front, his near-fatal bullet wound and the vicious treachery
of his supposed allies. A firsthand account of the brutal
conditions of the Spanish Civil War, George Orwell's Homage to
Catalonia includes an introduction by Julian Symons.
