Brochura em bom estado, rasuras mínimas na capa, corte com pequenos pontos amarelados, devido a ação do tempo. 496 páginas, 23 x 15 cm. Barcelona is Robert Hughess monumentally informed and irresistibly opinionated guide to the most un-Spanish city in Spain. Hughes scrolls through Barcelonas often violent history; tells the stories of its kings, poets, magnates, and revolutionaries; and ushers readers through municipal landmarks that range from Antoni Gaudis sublimely surreal cathedral to a postmodern restaurant with a glass-walled urinal. The result is a work filled with the attributes of Barcelona itself: proportion, humor, and seny -- the Catalan word for triumphant common sense.
