Title: A terrific survey of the art, history, culture, and business of bullfighting
Product review: "Death and the Sun" is a terrific book that fully captures the experience of being at Spanish bullfights. The author has followed one bullfighter throughout his "season" and writes compellingly about the personal, family, business, celebrity, and bullfighting aspects of this torero's life. He also explains very clearly the role of bullfighting in Spanish culture and history, and its sports business aspects---running a bull ring, bull ranches, costuming, keeping an 11 person crew on the road for eight months a year, etc. This book is beautifully written and at many points reads like a thriller!
