Cover of A.L. Kennedy: On Bullfighting (ePUB)

Bullfighting – the ultimate spectator sport.
Acclaimed novelist A. L. Kennedy unpeels the layers and explains the mechanics before dissecting them with surgical precision. Beyond the theatre, the costume and the well-worn plot she focuses on the fact that a man faces his death while a crowd looks on. The result is a startling confrontation with her own, and mankind”s, mortality.
