About this work:

George Orwell, one of the great names in English literature of the 20th century, was just a young writer when he decided to come to Spain to write about the civil war. The result of his stay in Catalonia, in 1937, was a book witnessing the war that became one of the most important written documents of our recent history.

Originally published in English, the book Homenaje a Cataluña (Homage to Catalonia) has been through numerous editions. However, the one we are presenting here is unique for two reasons: it is taken from the first edition in Castilian Spanish and Catalan, from the version that George Orwell revised before his death, and it has been designed as a real collector's jewel by Eduardo Arranz-Bravo. The beautiful illustrations by the Catalan artist reflect the delicacy, idealism and respect that Orwell showed in describing, with wonderful independence, the difficult political situation in Barcelona during the war.

Offered exclusively by Círculo del Arte is an original engraving by Arranz-Bravo, in a limited edition, numbered and signed by the artist. The version of the book in Catalan is accompanied by the etching entitled A les Trinxeres (To the Trenches), and the Spanish version by the etching Orwell en Catalunya (Orwell in Catalonia) also an original by the artist. Both works exude melancholy in their blue, nocturnal visions.
