Download or read book Barcelona Noir (Akashic Noir). written by Adriana V. Lopez and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2011 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barcelona, with all its illustrious colour and exterior finery, hasn't always been able to curb its darker yearnings. Blame it on a bubbling, repressive concoction made with a pinch of Church, a touch of Crown and a large dose of General Franco to stir up the insides of its very independent and anarchic Catalonian spirit. Repression, vice, immigration - the 14 stories in Barcelona Noir will divert readers' eyes from Barcelona's lively Ramblas and Gaudi spires and open them to the city's tainted side; one that will never appear on any tour.
