Editorial Reviews

Review

"Memory Battles of the Spanish Civil War is a fascinating, judiciously blended mix of interviews and portraits, cultural criticism, meditations, and reportage, refreshingly unlike any other book in the field that I've read. Sebastiaan Faber wears his erudition lightly, but brings a deep knowledge of a country he loves and of its struggles to come to terms with a tragic and violent piece of its past. It's worth reading alone to hear the voices of historians about what drew them to Spain in this era—why don't more people pose that question to scholars?"
—Adam Hochschild, author of Spain in Our Hearts: Americans in the Spanish Civil War, 1936–1939

"Faber's collection of bracing, enjoyable, and provocative essays steps squarely into the middle of Spain's ongoing (but, thankfully, bloodless) cultural civil war over the past. He plunges a finger into the country's deepest and most durable sore with a series of sizzling critiques of how historians, writers, and intellectuals view Spain's legacy of fratricide and a forty-year dictatorship that casts its long shadow over the present. Just how does (or should) Spain deal with the uncomfortable facts and emotions left behind by Francoism and the successful but imperfect transition to democracy that followed it? There is much to agree with, and much to disagree with, but the merit in Faber's writing comes from the way it re-inspects and challenges many of the assumptions on which depictions of Spain's recent past are based, obliging the reader to do the same."
—Giles Tremlett, author of Ghosts of Spain: Travels through Spain and Its Silent Past and Isabella of Castile: Europe's First Great Queen
