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.
