<p>Colm Tóibín's <i>Homage to Barcelona</i> celebrates one of Europe’s greatest cities – a cosmopolitan hub of vibrant architecture, art, culture and nightlife. It moves from the story of the city’s founding and its huge expansion in the nineteenth century to the lives of Gaudí, Miró, Picasso, Casals and Dalí. It also explores the history of Catalan nationalism, the tragedy of the Civil War, the Franco years and the transition from dictatorship to democracy which Colm Tóibín witnessed in the 1970s.<br><br> Written with deep knowledge and affection, <i>Homage to Barcelona</i> is a sensuous and beguiling portrait of a unique Mediterranean port and an adopted home.</p>
