a veritable gem ... in every sense of the word a memorable, beautifully written book * IRELAND EXAMINER *
Although many English writers have opened windows on Spain ... none have done it so intimately and so personally as Lucia Graves. This is a book of high literary distinction and extraordinary humanity. One eagerly awaits a sequel * TLS *
A highly revealing account, not only of a woman's life, but of a whole extraordinary passage in one contemporary European country ... it should be read by everybody interested in Spain and in women's special history in the present century * FINANCIAL TIMES *
