Farewell Spain

AN AWARD-WINNING AND REMARKABLE IRISH NOVELIST

'A fuller appreciation of modern literature and a greater understanding of twentieth century Ireland' IRISH TIMES

This distinctly personal elegy was written during the early days of the Spanish Civil War by a writer whose future was indelibly marked by a year of travelling in a unique and changing country. A series of reminiscences, impressions and vivid insights, Kate O'Brien's thoughtful journey offers something unique at every stage, and captures perfectly the spirit of a lost place and the experience of travel and memory.
