"A furious [HG] Wells promptly forbade Orwell to set foot on his property again, and sent him an angry letter, saying, "Read my early works, you shit!"... To be fair to Wells, he was an insulin-dependent diabetic in declining health. Explosions of rage and Jekyll-to-Hyde personality changes are not uncommon in advanced diabetics."
An odd defence after foregrounding Wells as sensitive, egotistical and begruding.

"For the next three or four days Orwell and a small band, including Branthwaite and Moyle, sat perched on the roof of the Poliorama Cinema, which had a commanding view of the cafe and the whole of the Ramblas below. They spent their time alternately assuring the Assault Guards opposite that they had no intention of firing and, in Orwell's case, reading Penguin books."
