This book about the great architect Anthony Gaudi was written by a poet. That's why you need to read it carefully, and perhaps more than once. Engineers and architects will say about Gaudi in their own way, probably more technically competent, but hardly anyone, except the poet, will speak deeper about Gaudi the artist, about the genius and his creation not understood by his contemporaries, about the harsh ascetic, into which the Catalan provincial, dapper from a young age, has turned. And in this amazing book, for the first time, dramatic details of the life and death of Gaudi, which are not in any of his many biographies, are told in detail.
