Description

HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.

In 1936, George Orwell volunteered as a soldier in the Spanish Civil War. In Homage to Catalonia, first published just before the outbreak of World War II, Orwell documents the chaos and bloodshed of that moment in history and the voices of those who fought against rising fascism.

His experience of the civil war would spark a significant change in his own political views, which readers today will recognise in much of his later literary work; a rage against the threat of totalitarianism and control.

About the Author

His work continues to influence popular and political culture. Tamsin Greig., Nicky Henson and Toby Jones star in this new drama.
