from
Wikipedia
The novelist L. H.
Myers secretly funded a trip to French Morocco for half a year for Orwell to avoid the English winter and recover his health.
The Orwells set out in September 1938 via Gibraltar and Tangier to avoid Spanish Morocco and arrived at Marrakech.
They rented a villa on the road to Casablanca and during that time Orwell wrote Coming Up for Air.
They arrived back in England on 30 March 1939 and Coming Up for Air was published in June.
Orwell spent time in Wallington and Southwold working on a Dickens essay and it was in July 1939 that Orwell's father, Richard Blair, died.
