It's been ages since I've read any Orwell (and I think I just read Animal Farm and then 1984 and 1984 kind of broke me so I stopped) but now is probably a good time to pick up with him again. Orwell on Boy's and Girl's Fiction sounds particularly Relevant to my interests but really all of it sounds potentially fascinating.

Also YES, I would absolutely like to be a fly on the wall during the Orwell-Wodehouse dinner. What would they even talk about? Would Wodehouse just come to dinner in character as Psmith on the grounds that this ought to be agreeable to that socialist chap Orwell?
