I was going to write about George Orwell’s Homage to Catalonia this evening, but I’m just too sleepy… something to do with an enormous fancy dinner at Magdalen, I think. So those who’ve read it can hurriedly gather their thoughts to throw in opinions when I (hopefully) write about the book tomorrow!
Will also be discussing my dissertation title for Literatures of Empire and Nation course, so might be able to give you a nearly-final idea about what that will be…
The Spanish Civil War is a fascinatung subject.
