Our Lady of the Sewers: And Other Adventures in Deep Spain
Paul Richardson’s mission—”to sieve out the ancient, perverse and eccentric from the new, nice and normal”—took him from coastal plain to mountainous peak. From ritual pig killings to wood-chopping competitions, from an alchemist who eats stone to pilgrimages in the name of obscure Virgins, his journey into deep Spain is captivating, often hilarious, sometimes surprising, and always highly illuminating.
