Catalonian Fireboxes

"Hell's Mouth" in one such. A
rarity. An angry eye on either
side. The work of an artist, 
not just an artisan. In Bar-
celona. Also in Barcelona
resistance to Franco, the last
year of the Civil War, now 
many years ago, but later than

the firebox. A war I had rom-
antic feelings for, would like
to have fought in, until I read
George Orwell's Homage to Cat-
alonia & all attraction vanished. 
Fire out. Ashes in the mouth.
