The Spike was written when Orwell was living intentionally as a tramp in London. It is about the unfairness that these people must go through and the way that people believe that they are superior to others, even when we are all the same. This is displayed using irony and the judgmental narrative voice. Orwell is commenting on the harsh and unfair life that some experience and also the cruel nature of human beings.
