Catalonia: A Cultural History by Michael Eaude

3.0

Some parts of this were interesting, but his writing made it difficult to like and sometimes difficult to follow. He took weird side notes, provided too much detail about some things and not enought about others, and jumped from topic to topic so I wasn't always sure what time period or place he was talking about. He did use the word "dank" a lot, which I liked. He also has a chapter which prominently features Spanish mushroom gathering techniques and the cava -making process, which was also cool. Also gave a nice intro to the Barcelona based artists whose work I Will be viewing. Read for a class to prepare for a trip to Barcelona.
