reviews: Ritual and Sacrifice in the Corrida

    Return to Ritual and Sacrifice in the Corrida

 "This is a stunningly successful book, unlike any taurine work published in English in decades. Josephs has given us a work that will, for years, sit comfortably alongside the best of Hemingway, the best of Conrad, the best of Fulton and Tynan -- destined to be one of the more re-read works in any taurine bibliophile's library." - Mundo-Taurino.org Mundo-Taurino.org

 "to be savored slowly and remembered." "For taurine bibliophiles, it is sure to be a classic." - La Busca La Busca

 "Always engaging, Josephs' romanticized accounts of the matador's life may not convert the opposed, but it will reveal some of the beauty behind the brutality." - Booklist Booklist
