Summary:
Politics. Cultural Writing. These essays, by one of Spain's greatest novelists, originate in Goytisolo's travels in the 1990s and were almost all published in the Spanish newspaper El Pais during that period. Here, in Peter Bush's English translation, they provide rich historical analysis and moving first-person reportage of life in four explosive war zones: Sarajevo, Algeria, the West Bank and Gaza, and Chechnya.
Notes:
Chiefly a collection of previously published essays first published in El Pais and then translated and published in the Times.
