Summary: Visit the Alhambra and read this book.
Comment: My visit to the Alhambra in the summer of 2002 wouldn't have been the same, not even close, if I hadn't peeped into the curiosity shop in the Alhambra complex. The book was everywhere. The stories are short and the the book itself delivers a romantic, or rather misterious fragrance into the atmosphere. It was a good choice. I kept reading it during the next days of my trip through the south of Spain. And it helped me visualize more clearly a living Alhambra, with real people walking in and out, doing their chores, all the kinds of people that ever walked into this artistic wonder of the world.

I am thankful to this nicely written book because it helped me appreciate much better the beauty and history of the Alhambra. If you walk by architectural monuments and you can't say much more than -it's nice- or -wow- you need a book like this one, something that help you appreciate it, if not teach you about architecture or art in general.
