Ghosts Of Spain [Idioma Inglés] de Giles Tremlett
Descripción - Críticas 'Tremlett is as sound on social history as he is on recent politics. 'Ghosts of Spain' is a book of remarkable scope...carried along by the author's enthusiasm for his subject and his determination to capture this contemporary Spanish moment. It is a quest in which he succeeds brilliantly, and he emerges as a worthy member of that band of writers, from Richard Ford and Ernest Hemingway to Gerald Brenan and Michael Jacobs, who have fallen for Iberia. 'Ghosts of Spain' is a warts-and-all love letter from someone who hopes never to recover from the 'coup de foudre.''--'Sunday Times' (London) 'Tremlett, Madrid correspondent for the Guardian, went native almost immediately upon his arrival in Spain twenty years ago. He wants us to see, hear, touch, and taste exactly why....there are pages here on almost every exemplary, cautionary, and symbolic aspect of Old Spain and New.' John Leonard, 'Harper's' Praise for 'Ghosts of Spain' '[Tremlett] paints a rich, multicolored canvas of one of Europe's most fascinating nations.''--Entertainment Weekly''This well traveled journalist...knows his subject as he ventures through the past to explain the present personality of a country so varied that even in modern times its complicated medieval legacy is part of everyday life.' '--''Washington'' Times' (Ann Geracimos) 'Tremlett has written a smart and highly readable book that mixes incisive political history with sophisticated cultural reporting.''--''Seattle'' Times '(Robin Updike) '[An] incisive and engaging book....[Tremlett's] sober analysis of how the Madrid train bombings of March 11, 2004...exposed deep fissures in Spanish society is the best report I've read on the subject....[A]n invaluable book.

Tremlett, Madrid correspondent for the Guardian, went native almost immediately upon his arrival in Spain twenty years ago. He wants us to see, hear, touch, and taste exactly why. He will drag us from the beaches of the Costa Blanca, where bikinis saved Spain for northern European tourism, to theslums of Seville, where abused Gypsies and authentic flamenco are still to be found. We will follow im from the brothels of Valencia to the alcazars of Al Andalus to the serpent and axe of Bilbao and Basque terror to the latest statistics on child-rearing, golf courses, homosexuality, and cocaine consumption. We meet drug dealers, real estate hustlers, soccer stars, corrupt businessmen and pols, incorruptible judges, not-so-former Falangist, and Opus Dei. We speak Catalan in Barcelona, listen to the cantigas of trovadores Galicia, look at Picasso' s Guernica in Madrid, watch Pedro Almodovar on TV in La Mancha, and learn that the novelist Camilo Jose Cela, winner of the 1989 Nobel Prize for Literature, once upon a time snitched on fellow writers to Franco' s thugs. El Cid, Unamuno, Don Quixote, Garcia Lorca-- there are pages here on almost every exemplary, cautionary, and symbolic aspect of Old Spain and New except, perhaps, the Manolete Mausoleum in Cordoba; Tremlett doesn' t much care for bullfighting. But mostly there are ghosts. And most of these ghosts belong to the Spanish Civil War and Franco' s subsequent fascistic Brigadoon. In return for a bloodless transition to democracy after the dictator' s death in 1975, all sides seem to have signed some unspoken agreement to subscribe to what Tremlett calls ' Amnistia and Amnesia' -- a plague of forgetting right out of One Hundred Years of Solitude. But now the bodies buried in nameless dumps are turning up, literally, wherever ground is broken for a shopping mall. And nothing like South Africa' s Truth and Reconciliation Commission has ever occurred to Spain, because nobody like Nelson Mandela has ever exerted an influence. Tremlett is excited, hopeful, worried. If we already know that, at our worst, we are capable of radical evil, can' t we dream that our best might muster some radical good? Then, also waiting to be heard from, there are those other Spanish ghosts: the Moor and the Jew.'-John Leonard, 'Harper's' Reseña del editor The appearance - sixty years after that war ended - of mass graves containing victims of Franco's death squads finally broke what spaniards call 'the pact of forgetting'. This book takes us on a journey around Spain - and through spanish history.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés. Biografía del autor Giles Tremlett is the Guardian's Madrid correspondent.
