dude that is my favorite fkn book I must have read it dozens of times. I went to barcelona and took a day long spanish civil war tour and unsurprisingly, the guide was like "so, who's read homage to catalonia?" and most people raised their hands very quickly.
As I hurried up the steps the Assault Guard on duty at the door barred the way with his long bayonet and demanded ‘papers’. I waved my discharge ticket at him; evidently he could not read, and he let me pass, impressed by the vague mystery of ’papers’
