Roads to Santiago A Modern-Day Pilgrimage Through Spain

"Cees Nooteboom, a celebrated Dutch novelist, turns out to be a wonderful guide to Spain and all things Spanish. With a northerner's hunger, he feasts on the heat, colour, darkness, religiosity and primitiveness of the place. Aficionados of the bustling new Spain of Gonzalez and Aznar, tower blocks and the European Union must look elsewhere; Mr Nooteboom prefers the corners of musty churches, the shade of holmoaks, tiny dirt roads running into the wilderness, and whatever may lie behind immense wooden doors with brass knockers."Nooteboom, Cees is the author of 'Roads to Santiago A Modern-Day Pilgrimage Through Spain' with ISBN 9780156011587 and ISBN 0156011581.
