Reviews

One of the best books of the year

—— Jeanette Winterson

On Bullfighting casts an unofficial eye over a world of male exploit; the public spectacles are treated with a fresh particularity, the inner landscapes of pain with an ardent, high-risk honesty

—— Julain Barnes

Informative, minutely observed and beautifully written

—— Independent

An ecclectic and fascinating cultural history

—— Observer

A strange and beautiful book

—— Michael Ignatieff

A thrilling and thought-provoking read

—— John Banville , Irish Times

Witty and well observed and, on the subject of music, inspiring

—— Sunday Tribune
