A brilliant look at the life of Eileen, George Orwell’s first wife. Scratched the itch that was left by “Julia”

Zufallsfund auf der Suche nach dem Buch von Orwell über seine Internatserfahrungen, weil das in dem Buch von Charles Spencer erwähnt wird, das ich vor diesem gelesen habe. Das hier ist es nicht, es war aber superinteressant und mir nur ein kleines bisschen zu lang (aber es ist halt eine Biografie, die muss dann auch bis zum Ende erzählt werden). Auch wenn man dafür nicht die Geduld hat, lohnt es sich, mal reinzuschauen; die Grundgedanken stehen alle schon in der ersten Hälfte oder im ersten Drittel.

I was disappointed to read that George Orwell was not a very nice man. Poor Eileen - who sounds absolutely marvellous by the way.
