19979780786102983-2025Blackstone Audio Inc. 1997. Hardcover. New/New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> George Orwell</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Blackstone Audio Inc.</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Hardcover</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9780786102983</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 1997</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award In 1936 George Orwell went to Spain to report on the civil war and instead joined the P.O.U.M. militia to fight against the Fascists. In this now justly famous account of his experience he describes both the bleak and the comic aspects of trench warfare on the Aragon front the Barcelona uprising in May 1937 his nearly fatal wounding just two weeks later and his escape from Barcelona into France after the P.O.U.M. was suppressed. As important as the story of the war itself - is Orwell's analysis of why the Communist Party sabotaged the workers' revolution and branded the P.O.U.M. as Trotskyist which provides an essential key to understanding the outcome of the war and an ironic sidelight on international Communism. It was during this period in Spain that Orwell learned for himself the nature of totalitarianism in practice an education that laid the groundwork for his great books Animal Farm and 1984.</p> Blackstone Audio, Inc. hardcover

Orwell's experience of the Spanish Civil War where he enlisted in the POUM militia and was shot in the throat. Gollancz declined to publish the work according to Orwell because Gollancz was "part of the communist- racket and as soon as he heard I had been associated with the POUM and Anarchists and had seen the inside of the May riots in Barcelona he said he did not think he would be able to publish my book though not a word of it was written yet" Fenwick page 63.
