The New Spaniards, by John Hooper (Book)

2 comments

The New Spaniards   10 years old and still one of the clearest insights into the sociology and culture of Modern Spain available today. A must. After the death of Franco, Spain underwent social and cultural changes on a level previously unseen anywhere else in Europe. One moment it was illegal to kiss in public, a year later the streets were awash with liberalism, democracy, creativity, pornography, and reemerging cultural distinctions. This incredibly informative book really is essential to an understanding of how Spain made that change.

    I read this book recently and was really impressed by it’s scope and depth. I’m moving to Spain in September and it was just the sort of book I was looking for.
