"What a great story! It unfolds quite nicely whilst keeping twists to lead you off on another track. Your knowledge of Spain is obviously an important part of your theme, and it gives it the colour that adventure stories need.The start had me believing I was in the plane and having just completed a confrontation, then the switch in time of Chapter One brings things alive. The impatience of the surveillance team gives feeling to the frustration of the job. The mystery of the characters and their role in the search for the paintings is well held. This story held me throughout ... making a very good novel. The snippets of comedy serve us to recall the skills of Ian Fleming's style ...An excellent piece of work."
This blog features notes and pointers to all things connected to the writing and promotion of the novel After Goya.
You'll find stuff relating to the background of the novel, including Goya, the Spanish Civil War, food and drink, music, painting and places. And you'll find links to resources where you can explore topics in more depth. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy exploring this beyond the text experiment.
CONTRIBUTORS I'm more than open to featuring guest posts on aspects of Goya's art and life, the Spanish Civil War and its aftermath, and Spanish and Catalan food and drink. If you'd like to contribute a post please contact me at haarlsonphillipps@gmail.com.
