The Village Against the World by Dan Hancox
One hundred kilometres from Seville lies the small village of Marinaleda, which for the last thirty-five years has been the centre of a tireless struggle to create a living utopia. This unique community drew British author Dan Hancox to Spain, and here for the first time he recounts the fascinating story of its villagers.
As the borderline between dream and reality shimmers in the heat of Andalucia, we begin to wonder if living as if change were indeed possible is the very key to making actual change happen-- Suzanne Moore * Guardian *
Hancox's book could not be more timely-with Spain on the brink of social crisis and the shadows of the past emerging. -- Paul Mason, author of Why It’s Still Kicking Off Everywhere
