Andalusia is a passion - and fifteen years after his last visit Laurie Lee returned.
He found a country broken by the Civil War, but the totems of indestructible Spain survive: the Christ in agony, the thrilling flamenco cry . . . the pride in poverty, the gypsy intensity in vivid whitewashed slums, the cult of the bullfight, the exultation in death, the humour of hopelessness . . . the paradoxes deep in the fiery bones of Spain.
Rich with kaleidoscopic images, 'A Rose For Winter' is as sensual and evocative as the sun-scorched landscape of Andalusia itself.
