Blog To Watch: Orwell Diaries
Travel Blog • Eva Holland • 09.04.08 | 11:50 AM ET
In August 1938, George Orwell started keeping a diary—and now, 60 years later, those entries are appearing day by day in a new blog, complete with a Google map to track his movements around England and the world.
Orwell’s Spanish Civil War memoir, Homage to Catalonia, was one of the first books to get me thinking about travel writing, so you can bet I’ll be following along—even on those days when he doesn’t have much to say.
