New expanded edition of this contemporary classic of travel literature, written by Cees Nooteboom. In this book, Nooteboom takes us on a personal and erudite journey through Spain, with Santiago de Compostela as the final destination. However, the author allows himself to deviate along side roads, exploring places like Aragon, Granada, and Soria, and reflecting on the history, politics, and culture of Spain. With an astonished gaze and captivating prose, Nooteboom transforms reality and offers us a meticulous guide to travel through the heart of Spain.
Cornelis Johannes Jacobus Maria "Cees" Nooteboom was a Dutch novelist, poet and journalist. After the attention received by his novel Rituals, which won the Pegasus Prize, it was the first of his novels to be translated into an English-language edition, published in 1983 by Louisiana State University Press of the United States. LSU Press published his two earlier novels in English in the following years, as well as other works up until 1990. Harcourt and Grove Press have since published some of his works in English.
