About this product

Product Information

For forty-five years, the expatriate Juan Goytisolo has been widely acknowledged as both Spain.s greatest living writer and its most scabrous critic. In some thirty books of fiction, autobiography, essays and journalism, he has turned the Spanish language against what he derides as .Sunnyspain., flaying the .Hispanos. while excavating their culture.s Moorish and Jewish roots. This, his masterful two-volume autobiography first published in the mid-1980s, broke new ground in Spanish letters with its introspective sexual and emotional honesty. It charts the writer.s unique journey from a Barcelona childhood violently disrupted by the Spanish civil war to student rebellion against the Francoist dictatorship and exile as a .self-banished Spaniard. to Paris in 1956. In Paris, Goytisolo fell in love with Monique Lange, befriended Jean Genet, and discovered his own homosexuality as he supported the struggles for Algerian independence. His passionate, iconoclastic pen spares no one, least of all himself, in this striking portrayal of politics and sexuality in twentieth-century France and Spain.

Reviews
"Goytisolo made sacrifices for both his literature and his politics. In a culture that now is evolved and permissive, but was then full of macho uptightness, his autobiography brought a note of total frankness."-Edmund White "Goytisolo writes like no-one else, except maybe Genet."-Neil Bartlett "... a frank and solitary writer on a crusade for truth. He's pugnaciously honest about his personal life, which is not easy in Spain ... . He's an outsider ... his own man."-Guillermo Cabrera Infante, "Goytisolo made sacrifices for both his literature and his politics. In a culture that now is evolved and permissive, but was then full of macho uptightness, his autobiography brought a note of total frankness."--Edmund White "Goytisolo writes like no-one else, except maybe Genet."--Neil Bartlett "... a frank and solitary writer on a crusade for truth.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
