Barcelona

“Barcelona is an attempt at total history: Social, political , cultural, economic ยฟ Hughes includes descriptions of buildings – and he is as good on the bony grandeur of Catalan gothic as he is on the bulbous undulations of Gaudi – analyses of poems, precise evocations of social conditions ยฟ and accounts of extraordinary people ยฟ His book abounds in virtuoso stylistic displays, impassioned, eloquent, delighted, angry, amused. There is an invigorating freshness and independence of judgement, an absence of clichรฉs, an enlivening curiosity” – Patrick Taylor-Martin, Literary Review / “Robert Hughes is probably the best – and certainly the most accessible – art critic in the world ยฟ in Barcelona his art-historical and his sociological talents converge in what is often a dazzling collage of Catalan peculiarities” – Frederic Raphael, Sunday Times
